The Severe style of Master Tahir Salakhov is like the scenery against the light.  It is the light that shines through anything and it is the light which cast shadows.  Master Salakhov faces the hardship of reality but also opens his heart for a passionate life.  This deep and heartfelt romanticism is perfectly presented in his work.  It shows the strong contrast and convergence of the difficulties and passions of life.

In Master Salakhov’s scenery and still life, they are always presented in a unique perspective, which almost like a monument, majestic and upright.  Yet, it also reveals the enthusiasm of life, showing how the brightness defeats the darkness.  To appreciate his works is like looking through a philosopher‘s eyes to observe and think; it is also like listening to a prelude of a grand symphony which is full of wonder.  And when painting portraits, he always finds the uniqueness of the individuals and fuses the wisdom and essence of life into the work which is profound and expressive.  From his works of portraits, people can find the inner sprit and characters of a human being.

Life, no matter how ordinary or grandeur has to face the toughness; yet who is to say there is no warm feeling in it.  Master Tahir Salakhov’s works take people to face with the hardship of life and at the same time to embrace life with love and passion.
