About the Artwork:
“The fragility of inner peace of mind carefully preserved from the darkness of the world around. It is very vulnerable and protected only by thin petals but despite everything, it burns and is not going to go out. It is much stronger than it seems and only gets brighter in the dark.
The background of this work is the events that are taking place in my homeland. Even when facing a threat, inside we feel a soft light that gives us strength to resist reality.” – Dasha Pliska
