WISH I NEVER MET YOU by DENITSA TODOROVA
I work about distraction and building up , research and question the space in general ,by creating illusion for time and reflections ,the consequence of this nihilistic idea by researches the variability of 2-D to 3-D images.. by picking up symbols from the superficial level by the surrounding reality ,i create my ownpictorial world ,world based on mystery illuminations and visual puns .The first question that comes to the public of my work is not what they see in the image ,but what they feel after the contact with it.Looking into the layers of paint and paper shaped and cut out I present my personal archive from images out of symbols of life death ,religious ,Balkan regions i rich pictures and memories from and i involved them by interacting them into my knowledge got here in Belgium ,But anyway, finally at the end, the decision as regards the painting’s definitive form is based on my own feeling for balance and beauty, but I never retain any single piece of work that I am not satisfied with...
the idea is to research the hidden reality and present it in one specific way , main inspirations is borrowed from the religions signs and rituals from around the idea for death and the since of memories ,to translate them in to the medium easy to be accept and create one dialogue without any real end .Iam searcher ,i tell story and play with the light and the space ,my work always stay on the thin border between existing and not existing .there is always second option hidden behind the first image.
