"Florian Hetz – Untitled" CENSORED (Poppies), 2020 Painting

Vlado Nedkov is a marketing and communications professional originally from Sofia, Bulgaria. He spent nearly ten years spearheading business development for a leading boutique public relations firm before returning to his love for making art. He has consulted for lifestyle and fashion brands, film, architecture, and interior design clients, and currently resides in New York. His work is part of private collections internationally. Artist Statement: "My work explores the relationship between shape and color in different mediums, largely drawing inspiration from architecture, geometry, as well as growing up homosexual in Eastern Europe. By painting on top of images or manual manipulation, I de-contextualize and re-contextualize the original story and shift the viewer's approach and perception of what is."
