Philosophy

For the artwork to be complete and relevant, all components including shapes, colors, and meanings, must be balanced and arranged properly. The environment is aligned with intentions, therefore creating a balanced and purposeful design. Good design reflects the true nature of objects.

Being an artist and designer teaches me to be present, to pay attention to the subtleties, to forever continue on the path of self-discovery, and to embrace change (materials! techniques! processes! attitude!). And to know when it is the time to stop and let go of the creation, so the design can live in the world and serve its purpose. 

Inspiration

Dusia resides in Southern California with her dogs. She loves early morning meditation, spending time with animals, camping in the desert, dancing at music festivals, long road trips with the dogs, homemade vegan meals, and pickled tomatoes. She is inspired by free-thinkers Marc Chagall, Friedensreich Hundertwasser, Ella Baker, Albrecht Dürer, Anne Frank, Anton Corbijn, Astrid Lindgren, Alexander Rodchenko, Santiago Calatrava, Philip K. Dick, Rosa Parks, Victor Pelevin, Carlos Castaneda, Princess Diana, Wes Anderson, Bob Marley, Amelia Earhart, Albert Einstein, Alexey Navalny, and Ana Garcia. Dusia believes that anything is possible.
