Dasha Painting

Born in 1995 in Dnipro, Ukraine. 2012-2015 Dnipropetrovsk Theater and Art College (Dnipro, Ukraine) 2015-2021 - The National Academy of Fine Arts and Architecture ( Kiev, Ukraine). Multiple participant of all-Ukrainian exhibitions, member of the Union of Artists of Ukraine. Works are in private collections in USA, Spain, France,Great Britain, Romania, Israel, Ukraine. Surrounding world is the main source of inspiration for me. I have always been impressed by the immediacy of ordinary experience, and throughout my development as a painter, I’ve worked to represent that as accurately as possible, trying to capture the raw essence of the familiar and revealing a depth and wonder hidden in everyday life and often overlooked. I believe that true beauty lies a not in certain ideal, but in the natural flow of life, in its variability and imperfection and therefore in painting I don’t seek a perfect gesture but utmost expressive, flexible and metaphorical language. I enjoy exploring the multiple possibilities of material, applying the paint with broad brushes in a loose and expressive style or experimenting with different textures, creating a multi-layered relief. I allow a painting to evolve organically, embracing happy accidents and unexpected results as they are opportunities for new creative solutions. I love when the work feels spontaneous and alive and try to evoke emotional responses that go beyond the surface. I work in all major classical painting genres, such as still life, landscape, portrait and figure painting, but whatever I paint, it is extremely important for me to perceive the object itself as a part of the living world, not barely a motive for formal searches.Through my art, I hope to guide others to engage with the world in a more profound and nuanced way.
