Daria Goryachkina is a Moscow-based ceramic artist whose work explores the liminal states of human existence and our capacity for transformation. Turning to moments of inner tension — the rupture between outdated behavioural strategies and the search for a new way of being — she considers the individual as an inseparable part of a larger universal system. Inspired by organic forms and the tactile textures of nature, she translates them into ceramics, imbuing each work with a unique artistic vision.

She completed the programme "Modern Ceramics" at the British Higher School of Art and Design (Universal University), Moscow (2025).

In 2026, her solo exhibition Keep Your Balance was held at the DzenDome Retreat Center in Moscow. Her work has also been presented in group projects and art fairs, including Didn't They Tell You How to Deal with Difficulties at U Contemporary Gallery (Moscow, 2026), an art fair at Gallery A3 (Moscow, 2026), the Art'Coma alternative art festival on the theme "Despite Everything" (Moscow, 2025), and Autumn Reset at the Bulat House Cultural Center on the Arbat (Moscow, 2025).
