Presentation

Russian
artist. Born in Yakutia, lives and works in Moscow.

The main
motive of Dunya Zakharova's creativity is giving emotional coloring to abstract
forms. Emotions of interest to the artist are diverse. This loneliness and
suffering caused by extreme weather conditions, and, at the same time,
tenderness and love. All these States of the human soul are dissected with the
precision of a scientist-entomologist and decomposed into components.

All Dunya's
works are distinguished by the thoroughness of work with the material, the
purpose of which is the maximum expressiveness of the finished object. The
images that eventually appear in the works seem like fantastic creatures from
fairy tales, dreams or our unconscious fears. There seems to be some hidden
threat in them, but the very placement of these creatures in the space of the
exhibition "disinfects" them and turns them into safe objects for
viewing.

In her
work, the artist combines installation, sculpture, video, music, drawing,
embroidery, painting and performance, addressing pagan roots, mental disorders,
sexual perversions.
