Microorganism Based Art: Introducing DashaPlesen

Updated: Aug 28, 2023

Daria Fedorova also known as DashaPlesen is a multidisciplinary artist and photographer. She is developing a unique methodology of artistic cultivation of microorganisms, by collecting spores from the air and from different surfaces.



She wishes to erase the boundaries between the metaphysical and the physical, creating a visual representations of what is present yet invisible - The Nothing



Working in collaboration with microorganisms, she respects a fine balance between the artist and its living medium.



Through her work she makes space for both artist and microorganisms to be recognized as separate living entities dancing with one another, as their defining properties collide.



This unpredictable and infinitely subtle interaction highlights each others strength and abilities, inspiring with each new piece a new story, with a distinct plot and a backdrop of mesmerizing beauty.
