Symbolism, surrealism, hyperrealism - here are the basic "isms" defining the style of Mr. Borodin's creating in the Siberian (Tomsk) and the posterior Moscow period (as a house of cards). Now according to the modern art criticism it can be definited as "postmodernism".
Experts of Mr. Borodin's works are talking about theatrical direction and philosophical manysidedness of his compositions. The action develops not only on canvas (in the picture space), but also between the parts (fragments), forming the general composition. His numerous "boxes", "excursions", "towers", "pockets", "stairs" etc. are like spacial rebuses of signs and symbols entertaining and hypnotising curious onlookers.
