Total freedom (2020)Oil painting by Daria Dudochnykova

The ocean holds endless mysteries — vast, untamed, and profoundly unknown. From childhood, we are taught to fear it: the currents, the waves, the unseen depths, and the creatures that dwell below. Yet those who have truly entered its world — who have swum, dived, or floated beneath its surface — understand that the ocean is not only a force of danger, but also one of liberation and transcendence.

This series explores that delicate balance between fear and freedom — the moment when surrender transforms vulnerability into strength. Underwater, stripped of all that defines us on land, we rediscover our most natural state: weightless, raw, and unbound. Here, we confront what frightens us and in doing so, dissolve its power — finding freedom in the very thing we once feared.

I chose women as the central figures because their grace, fluidity, and quiet strength reflect the ocean’s own nature. Within the shimmering currents and refracted light, their movements become a meditation on release — on the beauty of courage, softness, and the sublime serenity that exists when we finally let go.
