In a bit of a paradoxical way, Kanev acknowledges in retrospect the painters inferior situation, having to create in an anonymous theoretical environment, meaning in crude and primitive conditions, since he lacks basic conceptual tools in comparison to the musical author, the poet and the novelist. Most of his time is spent inside the studio without words, preparing a canvas, mixing paint, cleaning a brush, moving a picture from one corner to another, or painting...
