Original artwork description:

In 2019, Maria Ansh began working on a series of lyrical portraits. For her, a character is a figure that embodies beauty and grace, as if magnetically attracting the eyes of others, making them forget about everything else and immerse themselves in its greatness.
The main idea of the series is focused on the theme of beauty standards and their influence on the perception of human individuality and emotions. Through lyrical characters, the artist aims to challenge viewers to pay attention to how these standards can shape the idea of beauty and how each character is unique in their beauty. The aim of the series is to show that true beauty is not found in conforming to standards, but in the individuality and emotional depth of each person.
