Maria Mirnaya, born in 1989, lives and works in Chișinău. The artist creates and communicates ideas by channeling them through her own self. In her works, a multitude of personal reflections emerge, straddling the line between psychology and art. Currently, the artist is working on two distinct themes: a series of works and self-portraits under the title "I Fade Here," 2022-23 - addressing the struggle against depression and loneliness. Additionally, she is creating a series of works featuring landscapes and plants, titled "Later," 2023 - tranquil paintings born from the experience of pain, bringing the much-needed hope we all seek.
