Footnote
Biography: Dasha S. Kandinsky was born in Kiev to a family of artists in 1985, a year before the tragic Chernobyl explosion.
Her father, Anton S. Kandinsky, a descendant of Wassily Kandinsky, was a post soviet Pop Artist, known for his signature art style ‘Gemism'. After his death in 2014, Dasha continued to experiment with her father’s style as well as her own, which she calls ‘Academicism’.
By combining an academic approach with gemstones and mystical expressionism, Kandinsky creates works of art which are supplemented by both mythology and aesthetic.
