I have to save you

About the Item

ABOUT THE ARTWORK "I Have to Save You" presents a compelling narrative of guardianship and intimacy, conveyed through the tender interplay between a nude figure and a gentle stag. The woman's composed posture and serene expression, contrasted with the protective stance of the stag, evoke a sense of tranquil assurance, a silent pact of mutual care and vigilance. The painting is set against a backdrop that whispers of an enchanted forest, with delicate stars that hint at the mystical. The artist's palette, rich in earthy reds and soothing blues, further enhances the dream-like quality of the scene. The brushwork—visible and expressive—adds a tactile dimension, inviting the viewer to sense the warmth of the bond and the cool whisper of the night air. Inner Garden Series. Daria explores the possibility of self-identification of a person from fragments of cultures and concepts, her works actualize the thirst for the integrity of the individual in the ever-changing cycle of ideas and meanings. The artist asks about the possibility of being an integral person in the metamodern era, characterized by oscillation between polar concepts and rethinking of fundamental ideas of the past. Her work is an inner response to the question of what integrality is and whether there is a need to strive for certain ideals. Her work is also an external response to the totalitarian concepts that still exist in society. Concepts that are imposed from above require a false integrity, namely a certain ideology, and persecute everything that goes beyond these concepts. Born at the crossroads of Ukrainian and Russian cultures during the collapse of the Soviet Union, Daria manifests the norm of fragmentation as the norm, replacing the demands of integrity with the idea of accepting otherness as unconditional beauty. Her characters build their own world in which culture has not become a dictatorship - the world that Daria considers her home. Here is what Daria herself says about her works I draw hybrid creatures and symbols of an anthropomorphic world because I feel like a hybrid of cultures and identities. I desire wholeness, I love to see it in others, but I feel fragmented in myself. My paintings are my way of coming to terms with my own fragmented identity, and my way of showing that the beautiful does not always have to fit into an already existing framework.
