Ariadna Dane (born in 1984 in Siberia) is a multidisciplinary artist currently living and working in Berkshire, UK. Trained in Contemporary Collage and Creative Development at Central Saint Martins (London), Ariadna’s work has gained international presence, exhibiting in the UK and beyond. Her distinctive pieces have been placed in prestigious private and commercial collections through leading art consultancies and galleries.
Through her upbringing in Siberia and travelling, Ariadna had discovered a connection to nature which became a source of inspiration for her art practice. Inspired by the intricate forms and textures found in nature, Ariadna translates these often-overlooked details into evocative compositions that blur the line between the tangible and the abstract.
Rooted in experimentation, her practice spans traditional and contemporary ink techniques, hand-cut elements, augmented reality and cutouts, creating artworks that invite contemplation of both the seen and unseen. Through meditative processes, Ariadna constructs ecosystems of forms that interact, dissolve, and reassemble, reflecting nature’s cycles of creation and decay.
Her work is a dialogue between presence and absence, movement and stillness, exploring the delicate balance of existence. Each piece elicits a sense or wonder, transfigured into a moment of quiet reflection.
"I want my art to evoke a sense of awe, akin to discovering a natural wonder for the first time."
