About my last visions and contemplations...
I am currently focused on study of mythological creatures, ancient sciences and culture. By now I am not following the modern world and I would like to combine the problems and the elements of the contemporary with the knowledge of the ancient and the forgotten.

Fantastic Romance is...
A post-digital cycle in which I explore the romantic as a utopia in the doubly measurable worlds of the virtual and the three-dimensional. I add the fantastic to the romantic because I find something unusual in three-dimensional reality preserved in the context of virtual
existence. I sense a possible infinity or immortality of the human race in the idea of separating virtual life as a separate, parallel space. It is interesting that ancient natural resources encoded in man have been expressed today in the form of the creation of machines - an external means by which to achieve dreams such as "immortality", "freedom of spirit", or "connection with each other". I find it disturbing that our devices have developed control over us, control that outweighs the reverse process in which they are merely external aid.

“Еmotional choice”

“Share your story“
acrylic on canvas 100/70 см. 2020
We observe the world through monitors and value our feelings in publishing them.
“ The past. Way of using “
Contest exhibition in "Nuanse" gallery, 2020 Sofia
“When you were telling me that still the world doesn’t have an answer, I continued in the future.”
acrylic on canvas 110/80 cm.
This is a work dedicated to a personal moment in my past. It symbolises the way I choose to end my connection with my past existential states and relationships, taking them to another dimension.
"Past-Future tense"
acrylic on canvas 110/80 cm.
The information technologies in the past and future, the transformation of a type of media into another. The start-up phone with the greeting inscription associates some mixed feelings, a beginning with a positive development or the beginning of a new kind of doom and stagnation.
The digital expressive means are presented as a part of my creative
process of painting but also they represent individual completed
digital artworks and collages.
The themes that excite me and are included in my future projects are the
modern communications, the relationship between humans, the virtual existence, nature.
Relationships between matter, people and symbols of ancient origin.
Today's life enables us to observe the world without empirical access.
So I have also this opportunity to discover virtually those moments and
matter from the world combining to build a fantastic utopian romance.
The vanishing youth of those growing up is an inevitable part
and a tool for developing smart technology. I try to affect in a romantically
influential way, the coldness that is present in the modern way of communication
how everything and everyone lives in a seemingly endless free field of life but also a field of emptiness and loneliness.
