About Darja Shvetsova

My main theme is the city and people in it, buses, cars, trains, subways, gas stations. I am also inspired by vintage cars, workers and special equipment, submarines and helicopters, historical characters and events, military uniforms, body parts, wetlook and latex as a kinds of fetish, melancholy landscapes and interiors, understatement and psychologism, but without excessive drama, twilight as a borderline state of time and consciousness.
Painting for me is not only a self-manifestation and a way of earning money, but also a therapy that allows me to consistently close certain gestalts, thereby bringing the deepest satisfaction.
Favorite artists - Hopper, Neo Rauch, art direction New Objectivity, as well as art-deco style in clothing and architecture.
