Jenya Datsko was included in the exhibition 'Nuevas Miradas: Mujeres del Pop Art' (New Looks: Women of Pop Art), presented at the UMusic Hotel Madrid and organised by La Vanguardia Magazine in collaboration with the artistic initiative Lucha de Gigantes. The exhibition brought together nine artists whose work reflects a contemporary rethinking of pop painting, highlighting new voices working within figurative and pop influenced visual languages.
Based in Valencia, Spain, Datsko's practice centres on intimate portraits that explore the emotional and psychological complexity of contemporary femininity. Her compositions, often rendered in soft tonal palettes, present female figures suspended in moments of quiet introspection, reflecting themes of solitude, resilience and inner life. Through these contemplative portraits, Datsko reinterprets the tradition of figurative painting with a distinctly poetic sensibility. Her characters frequently appear lost in thought, occupying scenes that balance stillness with subtle narrative tension, inviting viewers to reflect on identity, vulnerability and the emotional depth of everyday experience.
Datsko's inclusion in the exhibition situates her among a new generation of artists redefining contemporary pop painting in Spain, where figurative approaches intersect with personal narrative and contemporary visual culture.
