After all, today we will tell you about the amazing works of the artist Dasha Marchenkowho lives and works very close to the Russian readers of our site and in the immediate vicinity of the Ukrainian ones. The geography of this author's works is all Ukraine!
Many times on the pages of the site Kulturologia.ru we admired the works of the authors of optical illusions painted on the asphalt. For example, three-dimensional street paintings by Edgar Mueller, asphalt graffiti by Julian Beever and many other authors working in this direction. And, it turns out, there is such an artist in our open spaces. Meet Daria Marchenko - an artist from Ukraine!
Dasha graduated from the Kiev Polytechnic Institute with a degree in graphic artist. After graduating from university, she spent some time looking for ways to use her talents, traveled, studied theatrical art and drew, painted, painted. And then one day she came up with the concept of wall optical illusions.
Dasha Marchenko and her associates have created a series of truly magical paintings for the Ukrainian freight service "Night Express", which has offices in all more or less large cities of Ukraine. These amazing vertical optical illusions were created at the representative offices, warehouses and offices of this company.
It's amazing what a beautiful appearance an old warehouse or hangar can take if you entrust it to a real professional with skills and talent!
The hangar in Dnepropetrovsk, thanks to the efforts of Dasha Marchenko and her colleague Artem Yalovoy, turned into a scene from the cartoon "Mystery of the Third Planet", a warehouse in Vinnitsa - into a train from Romashkovo. There are also similar wall illusions from this author in Kherson and Cherkassy.
Moreover, the size of these works is truly impressive! For example, the illusion area in Dnepropetrovsk is 96 square meters, in Vinnitsa - 78 square meters.
Magic and beauty - they are everywhere! Including in the peeling walls of old industrial buildings. You just need to look at them with the eyes of an artist!
