Artist Statement
I create layered works on paper through drawing, painting, and collage, inspired by nature and everyday life. My classical training and experience with clay and scenography shaped my sense of proportion and form, while collage opened space for experimentation and abstraction. Today, I blend tradition with innovation, drawing from Eastern and Western art as well as the cultural influences of Austria, Switzerland, and Bulgaria, enriched by encounters with people worldwide.
