DASHA MINKINA
Dasha Minkina is an artist based in Germany whose
paintings have been exhibited nationally and in the
United States. She describes her distinctive portaits as
"consciously turning inwards". Employing "the bridge of
empathy", Minkina invites viewers into a wordless dialogue,
creating a space for reflection and emotion. Her figurative
and expressionist compositions are most often
created with oils on canvas.
“My personal path is part of my creative process. I emigrated
to Germany in the early 1990s as a teenager.
From this point on, return, reflection, and the search
for the self from both my personal and artistic focus. I
painterly explore the ideas of identity and emotion, their
demarcation and interaction, as well as the interaction
between image and viewer. My portraits turn inwards.
Over the bridge of empathy, they involve the viewer in
an individual, wordless dialogue and thus create areas
for reflection and space for emotion. My pictures, therefore,
remain deliberately “unfinished”, they want the
viewer to complete the story.”
