From the memoirs of director Andrei Khrzhanovsky:
“Several canvases were being worked on simultaneously, and by visiting the studio regularly, I became a witness to their growth, as if they were children whose development is marked not only by outward signs but also by some inner transformations: zones of radiance shifted, accents, instrumentation...
Sooster’s favorite motifs—junipers, the egg, the fish, seaweed—had countless interpretations, as if the same composition were being performed by a brilliant musician on different instruments, in different rhythms, and finally, in rooms with different acoustics.”



“Moonlight Junipers.” 1967–68
"Frozen junipers." 1967
