Tormentum 

Konstantin Korobov painted 'Tormentum' in the twenty-first century. It's an oil painting that presents a disturbing, nightmarish scene. The artwork evokes strong emotional responses tied to themes of vulnerability and suffering. Korobov here seems to revisit and subvert historical power dynamics. The central figure, bound and exposed, appears to be at the mercy of a large wolf. This juxtaposition of human fragility against animalistic strength could speak to contemporary anxieties about loss of control. The image invites us to reflect on the darker aspects of human experience. Is this torment physical, psychological, or existential? The artist leaves space for multiple interpretations. "I try to convey the complexity of human emotion... the constant battle between our higher selves and our primal instincts." The rawness of the scene confronts us with uncomfortable truths about power, dominance, and the fragility of the human condition. 'Tormentum’ ultimately challenges us to contemplate the sources of our own suffering and the ways we navigate the complex interplay between vulnerability and strength.
