Lora Dimova

I am a Helsinki-based visual artist, born and raised in Bulgaria. My current practice primarily encompasses ceramics, drawing and painting, while also including a broader range of media such as photography, collage and installation. My work explores materiality, transformation and the relationship between the physical and the intangible.
