BIO
Ataya Artisia (b. 1996, Moscow) is a Bali-based artist working across painting, mixed media, and digital art. Since relocating to Bali in 2018, her work has become a search for origins, primal structures of life, rhythms of growth, and unseen geometries that shape existence.
Working with layered acrylic combined with plaster and sand, watercolor, and digital tools, she creates textured and fluid worlds where forms arise intuitively. Her visual language moves between biomorphic and geometric abstraction, offering images that feel both ancient and contemporary.
She studied at the Moscow Art School (2007–2012) and received a degree in Art and Graphic Design from Art College (2012–2016).
ARTIST STATEMENT
Ataya Artisia’s works explore organic forms that echo structures one might imagine under a microscope, yet they are not literal illustrations of biology. They are artistic interpretations of life’s processes: the impulse to grow, the inner intelligence of form, and the evolutionary memory that lives in our cells. These shapes might belong to another planet or an unfamiliar universe, yet they all embody interaction, transformation, and becoming.
She is drawn to what exists before culture and language, to the primal rhythms that connect all living things. Through biomorphic abstraction, the artist creates contemplative spaces where viewers can slow down, attune to subtle organic patterns, and sense the quiet presence of life itself.
