“Nebulae” – Fish Shadowbox (Study)
by Daria Aksenova
“Do you love cute art? Yes! How about fishies? Yes again?! Then this adorably fluffy fish shadowbox is right for you! Adopt him, name him, hang him on the wall!”
This fluffy cutie has earned the place to float in a shadowbox as a hand-cut, pen, and ink illustration.
I made this cute fish while trying to decide on several characters for the finished “Feeding Frenzy” piece. Initially, I wanted to hide him inside the Nebulae surrounding the space sharks, but I made him way too big. However, he is now able to swim by his lonesome, fluffy self happily. If your curiosity has got to you, then view the original “Feeding Frenzy” Shadowbox Paper Sculpture on my website over HERE. This piece is part of a duo. His shark shadowbox sibling is sadly long gone, but you can see his magnificent self over HERE.
I professionally framed this piece in a modern white frame, with archival materials, including True Vue Museum Glass. The work will ship wired and ready to hang for your convenience and will include a courtesy hanger. Grab your hammer or, in my case, a shoe and make him yours! 🙉🙊🙈

Daria Aksenova
Daria Aksenova uses ink as it is an unforgiving medium that precludes editing and demands precision. Individual elements are then hand-cut with a scalpel and suspended against each other until the desired depth is achieved. Her technique demands a steady hand and unfailing commitment, often requiring over a hundred hours of dedication and intimacy with each piece.
The Subject matter choice is driven by her interest in symbolism, often reflecting conflict inherent to the human condition, as echoed through mythology and folklore. The balance of playful storytelling coupled with deeper-seated significance provides unique yet relatable work. Her pieces evoke a dreamscape-like narrative that pulls in both the eye and mind, presenting space and opportunity for the imagination to wander into a deep narrative that can only be experienced first hand.
