Chechushkova Dasha
In cement relief, Daria Chechushkova documented such a communal occurrence. The residents of SRZ-2, disguised as mythical creatures, form an inseparable circle, forming a symbol of unity. This circular movement is similar to a ritual action aimed at preserving a shipyard from extinction as a result of large-scale coastline development objectives. As a consequence, Daria Chechushkova’s work is a protest demonstration expressed by SRZ-2 inhabitants.
Born in 1999 in Odesa, Dasha graduated from the Grekov Odesa Art School in 2018, Department of Painting. She then pursued her studies at the Kyiv National Academy of Fine Arts and Architecture, initially in the Department of Graphic Arts before transferring to the Faculty of Theory and History of Art from 2019 to 2023.
In her artistic practice, Dasha works with total installations, creating a “situation” that she terms as “co-existence” and “co-event”, using various media, where her diary-notebook appears as the central element.
From 2020 to 2022, she was an active member and co-founder of a creative community at OSRZ-2, an abandoned ship repair factory in Odesa. This period significantly influenced her and developed the artistic theme of situational, fragile art in the context of “co-existence” with another.
