Pkok curated art

Meet Bárbara Bezina @barbarabezina, a self-taught artist from Argentina who thrives on experimentation. From painting and digital art to photography, her work is a constant journey of self-discovery. Constantly innovating and experimenting, she transforms self-exploration into visual poetry. 

Her art has traveled the world, from Argentina, Mexico, and the U.S. to Italy, France, and Sweden, with many other countries in between, but Bárbara herself chooses a life away from the noise, finding inspiration in the solitude of a remote place, surrounded by nature, cats, peacocks, and creativity.

Delve into this thread to find out more about a one-of-a-kind artist, her journey, and her art in the Pkok Collection.

Her work has been featured in publications, projects, and websites including Lomography, Canva, Museo Arte Contemporanea Sicilia, International Foundation for Women Artists, Gezira International Contemporary Photography, and more.

Bárbara’s portfolio is rich with self-portraits, but they are more than just images of herself—they are reflections of identity, emotion, and transformation. Each piece peels away the layers of imposed identities shaped by culture, family, religion, and society. Through textures, distortions, and ethereal elements, she blurs the line between reality and imagination, making viewers question whether they are looking at the artist herself or an entirely new character.

Barbara’s artistic journey began in childhood, driven by a deep intuition rather than formal education. Though enrolled in art school, she preferred freedom and chose her own path, first exploring drawing and painting before expanding into mixed media, photography, and digital art. 

With a natural affinity for technology, she embraced digital tools as a powerful means of expression. Her work is a continuous exploration of life’s mysteries, diving into both its darkness and light to uncover deeper truths.

Her photography began as a necessity, using herself as the subject in her isolated environment, but over time, it became something deeply personal and profound. She experiments with long exposures, expired films, and unconventional processing techniques to capture both the tangible and the intangible—light, shadow, movement, and emotion. Every photograph is a glimpse into the unseen, a record of her internal and external world.

Bárbara’s art doesn’t fit into a box, and she doesn’t want it to. Her approach is fluid, constantly evolving as she mixes different techniques, from analog photography to digital compositions. She sees digital art as a limitless space for creative expression, where every detail contributes to a larger story. For her, art is not just about aesthetics—it’s about energy, emotion, and the depth of the human experience.

As an early adopter of Web3, Bárbara has made a significant impact in the NFT space. She isn’t just creating art; she’s fostering a movement, helping elevate women artists in the digital world. Through her work in social networks and NFT marketplaces, she has helped build a space where women’s voices in art are amplified and valued.

“Art is pure magic,” Bárbara says. “It’s the human seeking the divine and the divine manifesting in the human.” Whether through digital compositions, haunting self-portraits, or surreal mixed-media works, she invites us into a world where art isn’t just an aesthetic—it’s a way of being.
