@__mindeye___ ‘s  art feels like an experience you’re not quite sure about, half-remembered, pixelated at the edges, quietly surreal. Her portraits, often of herself, seem to hover in that strange space between presence and disappearance. Faces blur, shift, and dissolve. Nothing is fully clear, and that’s exactly the point. A series inhabited by two floating faces and half-plant creatures drift through soft pastel landscapes of pale pink and blue, with unsettling expressions like childhood toys from another dimension. Playful, but also a little too strange to be comforting. Movement plays are subtle flickers , tiny, looping animations that make her art feel alive, but not in a straightforward way, more like a memory playing back on a glitchy screen.

Veronika’s work is a mix of soft digital textures, emotional abstraction, and surreal storytelling. It’s beautiful, a little eerie, and totally original. In her hands, distortion becomes delicate. She explores identity not by showing it clearly, but by letting it blur, shift, and drift like a thought just out of reach.
