About Viliana Atanasova

I was born and raised in Bulgaria.Drawing and reading were my daily obsession when I was a child.Nobody in my family had artistic background,my mother was a math teacher and my father was a manager at the local factory, therefore I kept art deep inside me for long period of time.I've always wanted to be an artist but I graduated with Bachelor in Kinesiology at Univeristy of Russe, Bulgaria instead,in 2004.I took my first drawing lesson years later at City College of San Francisco and pursued Master degree in Fine Arts Pedagogy in 2016.As a math teacher my mother always wanted me to become the perfect version of myself and to be perfectionist in everything I do/create in life.I think that the equation is also a work of art in itself.Math and good art aren't as different.My artwork is a representation of my vision for a beautiful equation,which I believe is the balance of all forces which makes you feel heaven.The perfect balance in life, between intellect and emotions ,physical and spiritual,past,presence and future,balance of cultures,humans ,nature,forces and science.My artwork also represent the balance I seek in my own life and in the world,and my only goal in art is to find the perfect formula for beautiful,emotional and provocative story teller.
