Pliska Dasha is a Ukrainian artist based in Tokyo. Her drawings come out of the feelings people tend to carry silently — memory, love, longing, the unspoken wish to be understood — and try to give those feelings a place to rest.
She believes art is one of the few spaces where we are allowed to meet our own emotions without fear, without needing to name them or resolve them. Everything in her practice follows from that belief: the hand on paper, the slowness, the monochrome, the willingness to leave a drawing quiet rather than dress it up.
She was born in Odesa, and the war in Ukraine moves through her work as a shadow rather than a subject. It is the reason she pays attention to small, tender things and trusts them. What she hopes a viewer finds in her drawings isn't a statement about any of this — only the recognition of a feeling they already knew, and the permission to feel it for a moment without having to hide it.

Pliska Dasha was born in Odesa, Ukraine, and is currently based in Tokyo, Japan. She studied art at the Professional College of Art named after Mitrofan Grekov in Odesa from 2006 to 2011, and went on to complete a Master's degree in Design at the International Humanitarian University, Odesa, in 2015.
Her drawing practice — working primarily in graphite and charcoal on paper — began receiving international attention in the mid-2010s, with early exhibitions in the United States and Australia, including shows at New Hope Creative in California, the Church of Templehead in Chicago, and three consecutive years (2016–2017) with Peanut Gallery in Adelaide.
Since 2022, she has been represented in the program of WowxWow Gallery in Scotland, taking part in their monthly group exhibitions and curated shows such as Familiar Strangers and Microvisions. Between 2023 and 2025, her work appeared in more than thirty WowxWow group exhibitions.
Following her move to Tokyo, her work has been shown in Japan at GALLERY AND LINKS 81 as part of AND LINKS Selection V (2025), and at the Shibuya Art Museum in NIHONBUNGEI Vol.5 (2026). Her drawings have also been featured in Hi-Fructose Magazine and Flaunt.
