The revolving painting is Ruzo’s masterpiece which he worked on for 15 years. Ruzo went through hell during the creation of this unique work. He had no idea when he started what a huge commitment it would be. He was pushed by an unknown power. He suffered physically, psychologically and also materialistically. It was a disaster. He put all of his soul, all of his being into this painting and he didn’t know why. He saw only one thing: everything turning. Ruzo lives with this truth that our planet, even as you are reading this is turning at about 100’000 km /h around the sun; he feels the planet moving. He feels that it isn’t the sun that sets, but our planet that turns backwards. He lives with this, every day, and his daily worries get lost in this nothingness as he becomes smaller with the relativity of our existence. This work is neither political, nor religious; it is uniquely based on 3 realities: birth, love and death.


The painting has four faces:

1st face: Birth and Destiny

2nd face: Core of Humanity, the family

3rd face: Universal philosophy and its heritage

4th face: God and men
