Bella Antonova

Bella Antonova is a Bulgarian-born mixed media artist based in London. Working across paper and canvas, she explores the space between figuration and abstraction through layered textures, flowing lines, and organic forms.

Her work often centres on the female figure, not as a portrait of a specific person, but as an emotional and psychological presence. Themes of transformation, memory, stillness, and inner movement run quietly through her practice.

Moving between realism and abstraction, each piece develops intuitively, allowing texture, gesture, and atmosphere to guide the process. Influenced by nature, symbolism, and the tension between fragility and strength, her works invite contemplation rather than fixed interpretation.

Her work is held in private collections internationally.
