Description

Joy 2 – Conceptual Artwork from "The Goat, the Crocodile, and the Total Solar Eclipse" Collection

In this captivating work, I explore the profound intersection of creation and destruction through a figure engulfed in multiple identities. This piece embodies the complexity of joy as it intertwines with deeper themes of existential transformation. The figure, bathed in shades of red, black, and flesh tones, holds a pomegranate—an iconic symbol of both nourishment and death. Around them, multiple faces emerge, representing the fragmented nature of the self and the cyclical exchange between light and darkness.

The artwork is a visceral exploration of how we navigate complex emotions, symbolized through the act of "feeding" with pomegranates. This motif stands as a delicate yet powerful metaphor for our relationships with fate, the divine, and the painful beauty of growth. As part of my Projections series, this work merges abstraction and figurative elements, creating a landscape that is both haunting and tender. The multiple faces in the background mirror the process of self-reflection and the eternal cycle of life and death.

This piece speaks to those who are drawn to art that confronts uncomfortable truths, offering a glimpse into the depths of our collective unconscious while inviting the viewer to contemplate their own place within the natural cycle.

Dagmar Gertrot, Joy 2
Germany  • 1994

Presentation

Dagmar Gertot is a multidisciplinary artist, designer, sound/video artist, performer, director, composer.

Education: graduate of the St. Petersburg Art Lyceum at the Mukhina School. Studied at the State Architectural University (GASU, St. Petersburg, 2011-2013) and the Repin Academy of Arts (major: easel painting, art historian, 2013-2014). Graduated from the Private School of Perfumers (St. Petersburg, 2015-2016).

FASHION ART PROJECT

After a trip to Japan, Dagmar entered the fashion industry. Inspired by Japanese contemporary fashion, connected with traditions, cultural codes, and authentic technologies, she launched her own avant-garde brand of clothing and perfumes, Nomad Goba, in 2016. The brand was presented in stores worldwide: London, Tokyo, Los Angeles, Sweden, Greece, and France.

SOUND & PERFORMANCE PROJECTS

In her early sound projects, she combined traditional motifs of funeral songs from Siberia and Mongolia to the Balkans and Central Asia, creating her own musical landscape. Dagmar uses analog musical instruments, preferring live sound.

Her performative art during this period was based on her awareness of being close to the Saturnian principle as opposed to the Dionysian, focusing on the theme of sacrifice and the search for new eschatological practices.

This intense period culminated in solo music albums, the first of which was released on the French label Cyclic Law, as well as singles, live performances, and vocal-instrumental improvisations. One of Dagmar's latest solo albums represents what she calls "a step towards my authenticity, a step towards legitimizing my own madness."

Since 2020, her performative and vocal practices have centered around the exploration and immersion into the sex industry and BDSM. Her interest lies in the intellectual study of sadistic aspects of the psyche, violence, control, and the extreme vulnerability as a powerful resource for processing complex experiences.

Through bodily practices, Dagmar has formulated an artistic statement on the marginal status of sex industry workers and perversions in this area. By drawing attention to this subject, Dagmar also addre

sses related issues of women's rights and religiously motivated repressive practices against women. The performance is constructed as a ritual of mourning, a lament for the victims of religious persecution. The research inspired the collection "Mondino's Method and 11 Beauties in the Landscapes of Etruria."

VIDEO ART PROJECT

Her video art projects document Dagmar's performances and integrate the artist's sound and dance projects.
