I have inherited the love of art from my grandfather who was a textile designer at the textile factories all around the country. Since my childhood and school years I loved to create different handmade objects like straw and rag dolls. I painted aquarelles, pastels and sketches too. Later I began to do woven sweaters and jackets and until today – woven wall-hangings made of natural materials, some of them combined with carved wood.

 

As an artist and a person, acting with senses and feelings, I would say that art works speak more than words. I let my creations talk about themselves. They alone show the ways and things which inspire me to create the works.

 

Part of the roots of my inspiration can be found in the traditional Bulgarian folklore and ancient cultures – all of them having left a trace after their presence. I intuitively unite all this multicultural and ethnical diversity in my works reconstituting them through my vision and imagination.
