About The Artwork
PIECE OF MATERIA Materia again being the physical essence of the universe. What is a "Piece of Materia" in this context? Human flesh, a piece of cloth, a piece of art as the material embodiment of the idea, or the canvas itself? People have different interpretations of the same word, concept or image. For someone "Materia" is the whole universe, for someone - just rags. "The problem of any man is that he thinks in "words", this fact does not allow us to know the truth, and even come closer to it. Perhaps our brains would work differently if thoughts and ideas were not words. Art comes to its final stage, expressed in texts as independent art products. Painting, which appeals to feelings and emotions, is downgraded to the Archaic, and instead texts, concepts and ideas, referring to the mind, are brought forward. In fact "A Piece of Materia" is the artist's rebellious act against the verbal nature of our thinking, its conventions and imperfections. This project is about the lost connection between the material and the ephemeral, the lost sense of words and texts. It’s an attempt of trying to find it again.

Ukraine
Dasha Skorubska-Kandinsky was born in Kiev in 1985 to a family of artists. Her father, Anton S. Kandinsky, (the descendant of Vasily Kandinsky) was a well known post soviet Pop Artist. He lived and worked in New York, where he rose to fame after developing his signature art style known as ‘Gemism'. He passed away in His studio in Manhattan in 2014. Nowadays Dasha continues increasing and enriching her father’s style as well as her own art style, which she calls academicism. She believes that "a work of art should be syncretic” and therefore, uses an academic manner as the foundation for her artwork. It is complete only when it contains both myth (non-verbal philosophy), and aesthetics. She combines mystical expressionism, naked sexuality and symbolic mythology. In her work she combines the "raw and hot flesh" of the Paint with the cold heart of her gemstones to create a work of art which is supplemented by both. Her works are part of private collections in Russia, Ukraine, USA, Germany, France, Monaco, China, Switzerland, Israel, as well as the collection of Kolodzei Art Foundation. And the Museum of Modern Art of Ukraine (Kiev) and the Museum of Contemporary Russian Art (USA).
