About Daria Troitskaia:

Her artistic journey is defined by four integral components — continuous movement, a sense of adventure, self-challenges, and a unique perspective. Daria's photographs are never static. They always retain a sense of movement and vitality. Every picture has a story to tell. There are many such stories in Daria's photography book Maltese Exposures (2020).
