“Before it happens” depicts a woman and a cat captured in the same moment of concentration: both raise their gaze and direct it toward a point invisible to the viewer. The composition is intimate yet charged with anticipation — the figures stand close to one another, as if united by a shared premonition. Cool blues and violets dominate the palette, broken by accents of light and warm reflections on the woman’s face and the cat’s fur. The background, with its raised relief texture created using structural paste, evokes a sense of vibrating space, air, and something “in between” — between what already exists and what is yet to come.

The cat symbolizes an intuitive sensing of what cannot yet be named. The woman perceives the same tension differently: more consciously and emotionally. The most important “object” of the painting is what cannot be seen. The viewer instinctively begins to complete the story: is it an approaching change, a threat, an opportunity — or perhaps a miracle?
