About the Item

ABOUT THE ARTWORK “We are not alone anymore” from the series Perichoresis This work depicts two nude, grounded figures, calmly seated on horseback in a desert-like landscape under a quiet night sky. The scene feels still, almost suspended in time, yet there is a subtle shift in atmosphere: loneliness has given way to shared presence. The painting reflects a moment of encounter — not one of merging or dependence, but of mutual coexistence. It speaks to a form of intimacy where neither figure loses themselves. There is no anxious reaching, no need to dissolve into the other. Instead, there is quiet recognition: I see you, and I remain myself. This is a mature connection, built not on urgency but on ease. The presence of the other no longer threatens identity — it affirms it. To be near someone without fear of disappearing, to share silence without needing to fill it — that is the quiet revolution this piece holds. Togetherness here is not a fusion, but a calm alignment of rhythms. Being not alone anymore means being truly seen, and still — fully present as oneself. PERICHORESIS SERIES “Perichoresis” (ancient Greek περιχώρησις - “interpenetration”), a theological term meaning the mutual penetration of divine parts into each other, to describe a unique union that does not imply mixing or merging, but emphasizes an indivisible unity. Daria explores the theme of new sexuality, deliberately choosing a term from theological treatises for her series of works. With this gesture, she protests against the dictates of religion, the church’s manipulation and pessimization of human sexual manifestations and physicality, the false meanings and concepts with which religions have burdened, and instead of building true connections and bridges for man and God, they build walls. “Perichoresis” for her is a beautiful and complex term that describes the fusion of the divine and the material. Having grown up in the Protestant tradition within an Orthodox society, Daria notes the common separation of sexuality from divinity in all these religions, while she sees sexuality as the clearest manifestation of divinity, beauty, and sublimity. The artist notes that Christian culture has invested the image of the female body with a narrative of pornographic tension, while at the same time presenting paradise before the Fall as a sexual paradise, the Garden of earthly pleasures. For the artist, sexual paradise is a safe environment, complete trust, acceptance, the opportunity to open up and discover the Other, the opportunity to learn to be loved and to love. Love is an environment where merging does not dissolve in another person, but on the contrary, strengthens the individuality of each and enriches each other. Thus, the artist reminds that the division into the sublime and the low in love is artificial, and overcoming this division can make life more beautiful. The heroes of her paintings are immersed in the enigmatic space of love, and sometimes there are ironic scenes that balance the degree of sublimity.
