Braving my way

Braving my way, mixed media cut outs collage, 59x58 cm., 2024

Surrealism together with magic realism form a substantial part of my sources of inspiration. I am attracted to works of art, where the World is perceived as multi-layered, while events "happen" together, with desired lines and intertwined spaces that shift unexpectedly.

Ivilina Kouneva employs colour, drawing and often "draws with scissors", creating cut outs compositions. She likes to insert her and other artists' discarded creations, seeing it as collaborations through space and time. This is an ongoing, fluid process, where curiosity and experiment take essential part.

Through her artworks Ivilina articulates the fragility of life, putting in the centre a resilient female, who braves her way through life uncertainties. Following forking paths of narratives, stories unfold other stories in one surreal and dreamlike layered world.
