In the artist's words:

Through painting, Dasha Minkina explores what it means to be human in our time. In an increasingly technological, digital and AI-oriented future, the meaning of being human is changing. The unique selling point of being human is shifting from reason and logical thinking to emotions, social relationships and the physical body. The artist explores these questions in her paintings and searches for answers that awaken in the viewers of her works an awareness of their own humanity.
