About Sellvida - Silviya Georgieva
A multi-talented and expressive artist, Silviya Georgieva – Sellvida, brings her rich cultural and practical experience to the London art scene.
Silviya was trained and educated in Sofia, Bulgaria where she mastered textile and graphic design at the country’s most prominent art and design universities. An artist himself, Silviya’s father nurtured her artistic side from an early age and raised her in a highly creative and inquisitive environment.
Silviya’s passion lays in making collages – piecing together memories and extracts of her experiences on a canvas of colours, textures and shapes. Silviya collects mental and visual excerpts that she then puts together in a puzzle that reflects her perception of the world. Silviya views our beloved city through her positive and curious eyes – the power stations of Battersea, sunset in Fulham, a stranger’s demeanor.
Silviya is equally intrigued by the man-made and the natural – from seascapes to still life settings and Parisian rooftops, her pieces are guaranteed to leave a lasting impression with the viewer.
The art was always part of me and my life. The expression of emotional filing is always help me to deal with everything in my life journey.

I'm pleased to be part of this project at
Theatro Technis presents a modern retelling of A Doll's House by Henrik Ibsen.
Nora, wife, and mother of three, seems to have it all but she has a secret which threatens her family. As she struggles to protect those she loves including her controlling husband, she must face the consequences of her choices and come to terms with who she is and what she truly wants.
A Doll's House was initially received as a play of social criticism about traditional gender roles and relations. While it is less controversial than it was more than a century ago, it is still highly relevant in today’s public discourse. But the work explores other themes as well, in particular, Nora’s journey of self-discovery and awakening to the world she lives in.
