Shadow Between Selves”
2023, Oil , Post-Impressionism
This painting captures a moment suspended between observation and introspection. The primary figure confronts the viewer with a steady, knowing gaze, while a second presence — more shadow than self — lingers in the blurred background. The rough, impasto textures and muted palette evoke the erosion of memory, the layering of identity, and the quiet tension of duality. It is a portrait of someone seen, and someone felt — both present, both uncertain.

Sasha Demyter (Oleksandr Demiter) is a Ukrainian artist working at the intersection of painting, drawing, and experimental portraiture. His practice explores memory as both a physical trace and an emotional construct — where the human image dissolves into fragments, echoes, and layered time.
Demyter’s works are characterized by textured surfaces, rhythmic repetition of strokes, and partially obscured forms that hover between presence and absence. He does not capture a person, but rather the imprint of their inner time — as if memory itself could draw.
Based in Ukraine, Demyter runs DMTR Studio, where he blends intuitive mark-making with conceptual precision. His artworks have appeared in curated selections, digital archives, and contemporary art media, and are showcased on @demiter.art.
