ABOUT THE ARTWORK
"I Am Strong" is a visual testament to the enduring spirit and self-definition. This artwork delves into the theme of personal power and resilience, standing unwavering in the face of external challenges. It captures the essence of inner strength that springs from the core of our being, where natural instinct intertwines with human consciousness and creative potential. The painting is an invitation to look beyond superficial constraints, recognizing oneself as the architect of one’s destiny, firmly grounded and deeply rooted in the essence of our existence.
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 the question 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 internal response to the question of what integrity 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 ideas of accepting otherness as unconditional beauty. Her characters build their own world in which culture has not become a dictatorship - a world that Daria considers her home.
Here is what Daria herself says about her works
I draw hybrid creatures and symbols of a mixanthropic world because I myself 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.
