the genesis of new life, of a new history, according to the singular design of the Creator, upholding His law and order.
In the beginning, before the first dawn of time, there was only the Void. A dark and infinite expanse of nothingness, devoid of all life and light. But then, in the depths of that abyss, there arose a spark of divine creation. And from that spark, the universe was born.
The creator of the universe, known only as the One, wove the fabric of reality with the sacred geometry of the cosmos. The rules of this geometry were absolute, and they governed the behaviour of all matter and energy in the universe.
At the heart of this geometry lay the duality of light and darkness. For the One had decreed that the two were inseparable, and that one could not exist without the other. And so it was that the first act of creation was to separate the light from the darkness, forming a cosmic dance between the two.
From this dance emerged the stars and the galaxies, the planets and the moons. And on one of these worlds, a small and insignificant planet known as Earth, there arose a curious race of beings known as humans.
For eons, the humans gazed up at the stars and wondered about the mysteries of the universe. They marveled at the beauty of the light and the wonder of the darkness, and they searched for meaning in the dance between the two.
And then, in a moment of divine inspiration, one of these humans discovered the Book of Night. It was a tome of ancient knowledge, passed down from generation to generation, containing the secrets of the universe itself.
The book spoke of the origins of the universe and the sacred geometry that governed its behavior. It spoke of the duality of light and darkness and the cosmic dance between the two. And it spoke of the human race, and how they were all born of the darkness, and how they could only see the true beauty of the light by first embracing the darkness within themselves.
And so it was that the Book of Night became a guiding light for the human race. They studied its words and learned its wisdom, and they grew in knowledge and understanding of the universe around them.
And though they would never fully comprehend the mysteries of the cosmos, they would always find solace in the knowledge that they were a part of something greater. For they knew that they had come from the darkness into the light, and that the light could only be seen in its true beauty in the darkness.
As the humans delved deeper into the mysteries of the Book of Night, they discovered more and more about the creation of the universe. They learned that the universe was not only shaped by the geometry of the cosmos, but also by the principles of growth and harmony.
For the universe was like a vast garden, where the stars and galaxies were the flowers and the planets were the soil. And just as a garden needed both sunlight and water to grow, so too did the universe require both light and darkness to thrive.
The humans also discovered that the universe was not shaped like an egg, as they had once believed. Instead, it was formed by the interplay of two energies - the dark and the light. These energies were represented by the colors of red and blue, the male and female, and they were intertwined in a structure known as the vesica pisces.
This sacred structure had been passed down through the ages, from the ancient civilization of Atlantis to the Sumerians, Slavs, and Pharaohs of Egypt. And in each era, it had been revered as the seed of knowledge, the key to unlocking the mysteries of the universe.
And so it was that the humans came to understand that the universe was not just a collection of stars and planets, but a living, breathing entity, governed by the same principles of growth and harmony that governed all life. And they knew that they were but a small part of this vast and wondrous universe, and that their purpose was to live in harmony with the cosmos, to learn from its wisdom, and to share its beauty with all who would listen.
And so, armed with the knowledge of the Book of Night, the humans set forth into the universe, eager to explore its secrets and to discover the wonders that lay hidden within its depths. And though they would face many challenges and trials along the way, they would always carry with them the seed of knowledge, the sacred vesica pisces that had been passed down through the ages, and the promise of a universe filled with infinite possibilities.
Inspired by tales!
As a child, I listened to my grandmother weave endless stories and fairy tales. Only as the years passed did I begin to grasp their true purpose. This realization gave birth to an entirely new concept — one I hope will captivate both adults and children alike.
"Fairy tales are the ultimate vessel for passing down the wisdom of the universe."
The seeds of Sealed Tales were planted long ago. At the age of twelve, I was sent to England for my education, where I became utterly mesmerized by the legends of King Arthur, Merlin, and the Knights of the Round Table. These were myths kept alive by word of mouth, forming an unbroken circle across generations.
The circle is where all things begin, and so do my stories. Everything traces back to that round table. I have always been drawn to the unseen, to the thrill of unraveling riddles and solving the universe's ultimate puzzles. This lifelong fascination inspired me to create these visual seals — intricate artworks containing the encrypted emotional and philosophical essence of those tales.
While today's world races toward digital data and modern encryption, I chose to return to a far more profound and ancient code. I turned to Sacred Geometry — an eternal language spoken across cultures and eras, destined to outlast us all, for it is woven into the very symbols that surround us.
We learn to value our time and not to waste it in vain.
The unknown is something we fear and see no room for opportunity in the darkness, but as soon as the light enters the darkness, we receive the gifts to release our prejudice.
What goes around comes around.
An image of my inner beast.
Everything in the ocean of the universe is interconnected, every drop has a purpose.
The flower that keeps the universe in balance. From the Sealed Tales.
The wedding of opposites for the sake of balance creates eternal harmony.
This, an interesting seal. By the way, it grants wishes in the literal sense. I will surely tell you a story connected with this seal, it concerns the launch of anything.
Here and now, you can become the creator. Try it...

At the crossroads of eras, we have acquired colossal knowledge. Today, the old world is crumbling, and the contours of the new one are only just beginning to emerge through the fog of the unknown. Throughout history, art has reflected the zeitgeist and prepared human minds for profound transformation. My name is Ivan Lakshinsky aka Van Lax. Originating from Russia, I was born in Siberia, studied in England, and continually refined my art, inspired by the multifaceted nature of our world. I am an explorer and a guide to the future.
"The House of Van Lax" is not merely a portfolio. It is the first and only virtual space of its kind in the world, where classical art merges with cutting-edge web technologies and sacred geometry. Here, ancient knowledge casts off its veil through digital code. Today, more than ever, art hungers not just for an observer, but for an active participant who can think and feel.
Each hall in this gallery represents a stage of immersion into the fundamental architecture of reality:
In this digital sanctuary, I have united the philosophy of my entire life. I act as an architect of reality, artist, engineer, visionary, musician, entrepreneur, and the founder of the international IT company A-lab.tech. My explorations of our world never stop for a single second, and I know the time has exactly come to share this golden baggage with you.
Welcome to my temple.
