Timofeev’s drawings of fantastic, geometric architectural scenes are amazing. The Rubik’s cube and other, more platonic forms are constantly being transformed, sliced, and placed in strange topologies. Although related to the tradition of abstraction (and pop art, with the Rubik’s), they most strongly recall the drawings of visionary architects. Its interesting to see similar drawings being made without the same intent; namely, to construct something (no matter how improbable that construction may be). These drawings liberate that tradition from ideology so that they can be explored apart from the problematic idea of a utopia. They allow us to enter a world of pure geometric play.
