2-TIMES  Art
Darja Bajagic,
Transfiguration
@ New Galerie
— 
 

Is the material
world intrinsically
violent or, “a path
dug out of abysses,
populated with wild
animals & snakes”?
 

Born: 
1990 – Titograd,
Yugoslavia. 

Transfiguration’:
 
Is the US-based
artist's second solo
with New Galerie in
Paris, comprising a
set of stories that
interweave meaning
and form between
religiosity, violence & 
desire – featuring divine,
human or monstrous
figures who resist the
hermeneutic and erotic
categories of their
receptions. 

Darja's muse:
 
Czech pornstar, 
Infinite Dominno

On using 
pornographic
material/s: 
Art prompts the
viewer to see and
then re-see, and,
in this, the power
and vitality of the
image [in an artwork]
is less likely to go
unnoticed. It applies
to a pornographic
image or another
’.
