Malkhazova´s painting remain a substance of a thinking process. During the process of treating what has been seen, the thoughts takes place in the act of following the different areas and figures of the painting. Using a kind of intuitive mesh arrows, points, specks and mystical figures, which give pointers to movement, spatiality, the present, the future and infinity. Malkhazova endeavours to locate the compositions she has begun within a seemingly subjective and mind driven significance. At the same time, the continual shedding of restraint and the infinite possibilities of perspective enabled by abstractive figuration defines the unstable, vertiginous forces at work in the far-flung expanses between perception, cognition and visualisation.

During periods of great expectations, hopes and depressions, culture becomes intertwined with the enigmatic thickets of some system of natural philosophy.

«The unquenchable thirst of something universal, the striving to forge a unified whole from that which has been ripped into pieces or broken down onto pixels is what drives the world to turn to the ancient archaic rituals, the philosophical techniques of mysticism and other traditions that privilege not the analytical method or exacting academic science, but rather the search for an essential purpose, guided by intuition, inherent to mythological dimensions of the world.»
