Dear You

Zhuk’s choice to depict naked bodies reflects her interest in stripping away the material layers of daily life and returning to a primal state: naked, immersed in water, as at the moment of birth. Water, for Zhuk, is a generative force—a space of lightness, freedom, and connection with the Earth’s energy. Submersion brings about a unique connection with a world of silence and weightlessness. Here, breathing becomes intentional, movements graceful, and thoughts clear. 


In this state, boundaries blur, and emotions rise to the surface. Water becomes a metaphor for life itself: constantly shifting, shaping relationships, and revealing the depths beneath appearances.


For Bodyscapes, Zhuk created a new work, Dear You, that reflects on the delicate entanglement between humanity and technology. In the rush of contemporary life, technology weaves around us like a soft, near-invisible fabric—supportive yet invasive, integrated yet inescapable. Dear You captures both the intimacy and tension of this relationship, urging us to recognise its beauty while remaining alert to the risk of losing ourselves in its seamless embrace.
