Daria is an artist with a degree in art and design whose practice centers on exploring human states of being through animal imagery. Her work is not simply about depicting animals as they are, but about transforming them into vessels of emotional portraits and inner revelations. Each painting tells a story that extends beyond what is visible on the canvas, inviting the viewer to discover layers of meaning beneath the surface.

Often set against flat backgrounds, her animals appear to stand at the very edge of the canvas, creating a sense of presence and immediacy, an intimate closeness between the subject and the viewer. Through symbolism, hidden narratives, and carefully chosen color combinations, Daria conveys themes that echo universal human experiences.

She draws inspiration from Marc Chagall, Franz Marc, and Henri Rousseau
