About The Artwork
It's a performance I am doing on the 24th of May (the Bulgarian National Holiday of Education) in an area behind the Bulgarian National Library. It consists of me gluing together the pages of a Bulgarian dictionary of foreign words while Katya, my wife and co-participant, interviews people passing by. She asks them questions about the purity of Bulgarian language. Clothed in a hazardous materials suit I render the dictionary unusable without physically harming or destroying it. It is an act of mockery at the paranoia of purism, for we as communicative agents use language to describe our world. A view of language as a static entity therefore renders it useless for it`s purpose. Video URL: http://bit.ly/20dWb8H Edition 1/5+1 AP, 24,50"

Bulgaria
Based in Sofia, Bulgaria, i work with various subjects of the day often with the means of sharp irony. The iconography I use possess harsh and critical imagery. It’s all about stakes, skills and storyteling. Figurative contemporary art with a fine touch of social message, humor and artist condition message. When are we more sincere - when we lose or when we win? I examine the personal and the external, the conscious and the unconscious reducing the distance between the portrait and the self-portrait, the present and the past. Tracing the changing attitude towards the themes of freedom, carelessness, responsibility, guilt.
