ALEXANDRA DYALEE - ART, MATHEMATICS AND TRIATHLON

SLOVAKIAN MATHEMATICIAN, PAINTER AND TRIATHLETE

FULL PORTFOLIO OF MY WORK

W E L C O M E !

My name is Alexandra Dyalee, and the surname 'Dyalee' has been apendant to my identity as a symbol of my mental marriage toward art – I seeked to overwrite my surname in the birth record. It should stand for the fact I am living in three worlds – science, fine arts and triathlon, that do complete me.

Having finished my BSc. in pure mathematics, I am currently a part of MEi:CogSci, a former research intern at the Mathematical Institute of SAS, an active member of Nereus Žilina triathlon team and an independent painter.

This website is intended to

❁ unify all of my production into one broad portfolio,

❁ keep you updated of my news and recent progress,

❁ motivate you to invest your energy in something that is uniquely yours,

❁ provide examples of work where I am open to prospective collaborations.

SERIES I.:

ARS RATIONIS: CONCORDIA

Ars Rationis: Concordia is a series of conceptually-expressionistic acrylic or oil canvas paintings I have been creating during years 2017-2022. These artworks are characteristic by latin titles, hyper-detailed structure and mathematical formulas embedded in their majority. During this time, I have been studying theoretical mathematics, militating against first-time severe mental health decompensations and establishing my artistic niche.

Pueritia [Childhood] (2023)

PUERITIA (Childhood) <hr> OSOBNÁ PREZENTÁCIA / PERSONAL PRESENTATION <br><br> Pueritia symbolizuje nádej. Vieru dospelej ženy v to, že to malé dievčatko, ktoré má stále v sebe, síce pred sebou „vidí“ akúsi zväčšujúcu sa mrežu, ale nie je tou mrežou. Povznesie sa nad to, nájde silu vo svojej mysli a uvedomí si, že aj keď ju dnes tá mreža obkľúčila a začína jej splývať so všetkým naokolo, nie vždy tu tá mreža bola, a niekde v spomienkách má aj pohľad na svet z čias, kedy o nejakej mreži ani len netušila. Mentálne sa od nej oddeľuje a prenastavuje sa na „bezstarostnú“ budúcnosť. <hr> ARS RATIONIS: CONCORDIA, No. 17. 2023. Lat. Childhood. Boundlessness is a function of time. Oil on canvas, 20 × 50 cm.

Tibi Credo [I Trust You] (2023)

TIBI CREDO (I Trust You) <hr> Tibi Credo (I Trust You) is a showcase of a tremendously touching story of a young woman and performative artist being consecutively led into anorexia by her prolonged and subsequently being accelerated internal pain. The world has stopped in literal while she was spending quarter of the year in a psychiatric hospital. But her belief in love, belief in purity and hope deep inside have never left her. Actually, they were misunderstood – what ministered the pain first, but second, they were the ones to have saved her. <br> She has found her connection to God, who felt her – and let her be who she always has been – a pure showdown of Beauty the world needs nowadays almost frantically... <hr> ARS RATIONIS: CONCORDIA, No. 16. 2023. Lat. I TRUST YOU. The upper dimension of life. Acrylic on canvas, 60 × 30 cm. Published in CONTEMPORARY CELEBRITY MASTERS, vol. III. Published in INTERNATIONAL PRIZE PEGASUS FOR THE ARTS MAGAZINE.

Nova Sententia [Viewpoint of Freshened] (2022)

NOVA SENTENTIA (Viewpoint of Freshened) <hr> Nova Sententia has been painted as a gift for a woman wonderful and inspiring from inside out, living with a condition called Asperger syndrome. People with such neurotype can percieve the reality in a way of exceptionally purely, almost dramatically honestly, literally in its purest meaning of literacy, yet incredibly beautifully and creatively in tandem with a profound internal rejection toward any kind of a stereotype antropologically constructed by humanity when taken as one big brain of society. <br><br> She does so, and her view of the world did honestly blow my mind away so bad, so I realised I have no other option than to paint this myself. <hr> ARS RATIONIS: CONCORDIA, No. 14. 2022. Lat. VIEWPOINT OF FRESHENED. Permutation of new and old information. Tempera on black canvas board, 15 × 15 cm.

Tribus [The Triplet] (2021)

TRIBUS (The Triplet) <hr> Tribus was created as a wedding gift for my oldest brother and his wife, to keep reminding the couple of beautiful people with the unique beauty of creating one unit – a very newborn person by their marriage, together with their truly lovely baby daughter. <br><br> Mathematically, there is written that the descendent of the interaction of two constituents is a set of three new constituents – the two previous transformed, and a child – a constituent originated and possible to be originated merely by the unique interconnection of its parents. <br><br> Or in other words – how 1 + 1 can be equal to three. <br><br> #family <hr> ARS RATIONIS: CONCORDIA, No. 13. 2022. Lat. THE TRIPLET. 1 + 1 = 3. Acrylic on canvas, 10 × 15 cm.

In Via [The Pathway] (2021)

IN VIA (The Pathway) <hr> In Via portrays the internal stamina, burning flame and a deeply rooted trust toward own self during moments of getting emotionally broken.<br><br>The very inspiration comes from deeply ambivalent feelings during the real blossom of a romantic relationship.<br><br>Speaking with the livelong mathematics however, the grand language of our universe, we are entering growth into contact in consequence. Portraying formulas of the energy of a complex human being undergoing the heavy transformation into the very new stage of living, all of the pain is getting deservedly understood and is helping us make it to the wiser and more self-grounded version of ourselves. <hr> ARS RATIONIS: CONCORDIA, No. 13. 2021. Lat. THE PATHWAY. Bond energy dissociation. Acrylic on canvas, 15 × 10 cm.

Arbor Diligat [The Tree of Love] (2020)

ARBOR DILIGAT (Tree of Love) <hr> Arbor Diligat was created for a high school professor of Psychology and Literature working at gymnasium where I graduated, arranged unexpectedly during my visit of the place as I was offered to enjoy a cup of coffee inside of a cabinet subject to Slovak.<br><br>The salient calling of Arbor Diligat stands for the light. The deep and playful sparkling of the very alive and blooming soul of nature.<br><br>The sentience of its colors is strengthened by the fact I was painting the piece during a time when I was healing from getting hit by panic attacks with long-lasting severe depression. During painting, I realized it was the first moment after about two years when I could truly feel and identify with the abstraction of any shine. That period of time is comparable for me to a feeling of getting reborn. I received a second chance to feel the love toward living.

Cor Silvam [The Timber Heart] (2020)

COR SILVAM (Timber Heart) <br> Cor Silvam was created for a lawyeress who I did co-operate with joyfully during proceedings with my father in 2020, when I met him actually for the first time in my life. <hr> The artwork is inspired by the unique connection of a female soul with a blooming nature as well as the electricity being originated by a contrast of being naturally both tender and a little exclusive.

Numeri Nexum [The Love Figure] (2020)

NUMERI NEXUM (The Love Figure) <hr> Being finished in December 2020, the background of Numeri Nexum stood for perpetuation of an uncommon and noble friendship between two aspergerian women scientists living literally parallel realities of life as being connected throughout the globe.<br><br> The painting depicts formulas of the force of livelong love as well as the profundity of nature or the vastness of human soul as a medium for transforming the spacetime.<br><br> The original painting is being hung beloved in the city of Tampa in Florida in Darcy’s house, sharing the beautiful place with his devoted two of pug Dalai and a kitten Einstein. <hr> ARS RATIONIS: CONCORDIA, No. 10. 2020. Lat. FIGURE OF LOVE. Field of love. Acrylic on canvas, 50 × 50 × 50√2 cm. Commissioned to Florida. Featured in ARTISTCLOSEUP #4 (2023). Exhibited in ARTFORUM Bratislava, 05.2023.

Beatitudo Pura [The Pure Happiness] (2017)

BEATITUDO PURA (Pure Happiness) <hr> Beatitudo Pura was being painted and sketched for almost two years as a gift for my high-school professor of mathematics and physics, who was talking about the sciences in so much beauty, so I could at once feel the contact with our universe through the finest details of elegant formulas depicting subtle movements in energetical fields just everywhere around us. I started immediately researching mathematics with sparks in my heart – as a sixteen year-old student, and in two years, the research work was given a honor of 𝑝𝑒𝑟 𝑎𝑠𝑝𝑒𝑟𝑎 𝑎𝑑 𝑎𝑠𝑡𝑟𝑎 by Russian Academy of Sciences with associated institutions on the occasion of panel conference Vernadsky National Contest held in 2019. The exceptionally strong spiritual connection between those two mathematicians did create something that was literally constructing the mathematics itself. It began spontaneously and unexpectedly. On Beatitudo, there is eternized the moment when she did hug me tight and prolonged on 30th of June in 2017. I felt the energy did reach its ultimate at that moment. <hr> ARS RATIONIS: CONCORDIA, No. 01. 2019. Lat. THE PURE HAPPINESS. Inter-mathematical attraction. Acrylic on canvas, 50 × 50 cm.

🧠 Invisible Spectrum Quotient project

About ISQ

Invisible Spectrum Quotient is my research project aiming to develop a method for diagnosis of Asperger Syndrome in difficultly diagnosable individuals, i.e. these include socially high functioning females who do tend to mask themselves and copy neurotypical behaviour, which can result in severe burnout. Read more about the project in the extended abstract for MEi:CogSci 2024 conference and poster below.

SO who is the right participant?...

The ISQ is primarily designed for people who are struggling to get a diagnosis of ASD (most commonly Asperger Syndrome), despite experiencing the difficulties that can be associated with living as a person on the spectrum.

Common indicators of 'hidden' ASD may include

1) co-occurring diagnoses of borderline personality disorder, eating disorders, anxiety disorders, mood disorders and/or obsessive compulsive disorder,
2) feeling misunderstood and mentally disconnected from other people, lack of sense of identity due to masking or burnout from trying to keep functioning.

What will participants do, and why?

1. Administer the RMET test so that there are only 4 seconds for each item, which is a typical maximum response time for a neurotypical person (Baron-Cohen, 2001).
Effect: measurement of 'functioning' is conducted and evaluation is made in tandem with the functioning function func(N). Cognitive load in people with ASD is increased by the time constraint adapted for neurotypical people.

2. Repeat the same test with as much time as needed, but make the effort to differentiate for a correct answer.
Effect: support of the cognitive load by means of conscious analytical thinking.

3. Cognitive fatigue is measured on multiple scales.
