The Fair Archives

Who Curates the Archive?

My name, Dandara, 26 years old of joy. Ibero-Carpathian-American, Hispano-Luso-Dacian, Latino-Carpathian, Ibero-Carpathian-American, you decide.

I have always been drawn to contrast—not just in art, but in everything. Light against shadow, softness against precision, presence against absence. There is a quiet power in how elements define each other, in how something becomes more itself when placed beside its opposite.

The Fair Archive is my way of studying this tension. I collect, observe, and analyze the interplay of tones and forms, the way light sculpts and transforms. Some might call it an obsession; I see it as an exploration. A continuous exercise in understanding how beauty commands and surrenders, how presence and fragility coexist in a single frame.

This is not just a collection—it is a perspective, a way of seeing. Here, I refine my eye, challenge my own perceptions, and let the images speak for themselves.

Thumbnails - Sets 12-19

I've been working on some thumbnail doodles that I think would be fitting for future works. They're mostly background borders and corners, some randomized with various shapes and some inspired by whatever I was surrounded by at the time.

They were originally drawn by hand on some colored sticky notes, then scanned and formatted into my thumbnail base template :)

Another composition study. Very minimalistic this time. Have seen cats in those shapes. Продолжаю упражнения на композицию. В этот раз очень минималистично.

“First Light” - done for the Schoolism Course – Pictorial Composition with Nathan Fowkes.

I made it extra hard for myself, by trying to emulate the style of Oscar Dröge, whose work I admire a lot and hope to make it part of my comic work.

There is still a lot to do, but just keep failing forward.

Started studying composition and how art can be defined by form, mass or line. So I began doing a few studies related with it. Gave my self a time limit, so I would not get stuck on details and focus on the objective of the exercise. . . #artstudy #artstudies #compositionstudy #thegodfather #007 #photoshopart #formstudy #blackandwhiteart #learningtodraw #desenhodigital https://www.instagram.com/p/Cdgh0IhoqQU/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

She was beautiful, but not like this girls in the magazines. She was beautiful for the way she thought. She was beautiful for the sparkle in her eyes when she talked about something she loved. She was beautiful for her ability to make other people smile, even if she was sad. No, she wasn’t beautiful for something as temporary as her looks. She was beautiful deep down to her soul. She is beautiful. ❤️
