† About †

Daria A. Marchik is a visual artist and creator of ambiguous art forms with a focus in eccentric fashion and nonconformists, operating in various medias such as Photography and Film.

End of the 1900's Moscow bore Daria and sent her on a world tour. Having evolved in New York for the most part, her look on culture and it's inhabitants tends to shift the dualistic view of societies' standards.

In 2009, Marchik exhibited for the first time in Russia with 'Double Identity', a Photography and street Art exposition at Gallery Fotowall Etagi in St. Petersburg.

Daria Marchik contributed to platforms of the Moscow Museum of Modern Art, the New York Chelsea Museum, State Hermitage Museum in St. Petersburg, Gogol Festival in Kiev, amongst many others.
