Evgeni Shetihin was born in the city of Minsk in 1960. Evgeni have had time to try himself for many things during his life. He was a manager, hunter, and journalist, wrote verses and was even engaged in well-boring... The talent has arisen as a sudden inspiration.
     It is very difficult and what is more it is impossible at all to refer artist's works to any genre or kind of art. He is a ceramist, sculptor and painter in one person. It is also difficult to determine a technique that he worked with. He says himself that is a technique of big and small relief, bas-relief and small plastic art.
     Shetihin's   paintings   are three-dimensional. Their  canvas is as if it were  decoration  or background.  But  there  is a  real panorama in the foreground,  one created of  clay by means  available only  to him. Three dimensions give the impression of penetration to  another time space, another world.
      It happened  to hear that in his work  Evgeni resembles  Alexander Isachev in some way, a well famous artist from Rechitsa. Yes, there is some similarity. They were life friends, you know. But that similarity is just of subjects, fragmentariness  of trends and Evgeni Shetihin has his own manner free from any conventions.
