Description
The Eyes of Fear Are Wide is an Abstract Figurative Ink Drawing.
Fear shackles a person, depriving them of the freedom to create, grow, and move forward. Its form appears shapeless and disturbingly grotesque, yet the power of this sensation is illusory — one only needs the courage to look it in the eye.
“The Eyes of Fear Are Wide" is a monochrome drawing that captures the distorted essence of fear through hypnotic linework and abstract human form.
Executed in ink on soft grey paper, this artwork combines surrealism and psychological depth. The undulating lines both conceal and reveal, forming a figure that seems caught in a moment of internal battle. The facial features are empty — fear distorts perception, blurs identity, and amplifies the unknown. And yet, the composition suggests motion and potential: fear can be faced, transformed, and transcended.

Presentation
Yana Dmitrieva is a contemporary artist whose practice moves between figuration, abstraction, and surrealism to examine uncertainty, adaptation, and the preservation of self. Her paintings focus on moments when familiar structures begin to dissolve and identity becomes something fluid rather than fixed.
Figures in Dmitrieva's work are frequently faceless. By withholding individual expression, she shifts attention toward the body itself — its posture, tension, balance, hesitation, and instinctive response to circumstances beyond its control. Human forms stretch, merge with fish and other organisms, or inhabit spaces that seem simultaneously above and below water.
Migration forms an important conceptual undercurrent in her practice, but the work deliberately avoids literal autobiography. Displacement becomes a broader psychological condition that can arise through relocation, loss, motherhood, separation, reinvention, or any experience in which a familiar version of the self no longer feels sufficient.
Her distinctive palette of aquatic blues, luminous greens, violets, and unexpected chromatic transitions intensifies this sense of instability. Landscape becomes less a physical location than an extension of consciousness.
Dmitrieva's ongoing Displaced Bodies series considers the body as an archive of uncertainty. Rather than illustrating what has happened to a person, the paintings preserve the physical state of being caught between what was and what comes next — a vulnerable, unresolved territory in which transformation has begun but identity has not yet settled.
