Daria Elshiner is a member of the Beautiful Bizarre Artist Directory
Daria Elshiner’s artistic journey began on the other side of the creative spectrum, where she ran and managed public relations campaigns for artists and international cultural institutions. Based in London, UK, she worked with British and international galleries and artists, and collaborated with established organisations like the Venice Biennale of Contemporary Art, Cannes Film Festival, and Saatchi & Saatchi Worldwide, among others. As time went on however, Daria felt an irresistible pull towards the act of creation itself. Her passion for art gradually took precedence, leading her to transition from promoting the arts to producing her own.
Largely self-taught and self-educated within the classical traditions of art, Daria Elshiner embraces a diverse range of mediums. Her repertoire includes both traditional forms — such as oil on canvas and works on paper — and contemporary digital art. Drawing inspiration from the masterful techniques of Michelangelo, Lord Frederick Leighton, John Singer Sargent, and John William Godward, Daria’s work is deeply rooted in the exploration of the human form.
Daria Elshiner’s art delves into the expressive potential of the human body, using it as a conduit for conveying complex emotional dynamics. Daria is fascinated by the interplay between the inner world and the outer physical form, striving to capture the subtle symbiosis between them. Her portraits are far more than mere depictions of appearance; they are windows into the profound expressiveness inherent in the human figure.
In addition to exploring the emotional depth of the body, Daria occasionally incorporates intricate symbolic elements into her work. These symbols delicately address personal and social issues, adding layers of meaning that invite viewers to engage with the art on a deeper level. Through her nuanced and thoughtful approach, Daria Elshiner’s work transcends traditional portraiture, becoming a powerful medium for emotional and symbolic expression.
