These small-sized watercolours are my first impressions of my stay at the National Academy of Arts, Sofia. All of them were made in my studio during my erasmus program, and they picture the atmosphere and life in the atelier. Some of the paintings are more like a mesmeric, fictional image based on the place’s spirit.

The ’Untitled Watercolours’ series is mostly influenced by family photographs which I have re-worked as watercolour paintings. In this series I investigate how the transcendent world appears in our everyday life. I use imaginary elements mixed with realist representation adapted from various photos. In the paintings you cannot see faces - the model's personality dissolves and a transformative force takes command of reality.
