Tsvetana Yvanova Art - A Journey Of Discovery

Conventions do not define her - with versatile background in seemingly unconnected aesthetic fields from landscape architecture and fashion to sculpture - none of these fields define that artist and yet, they are all present in her world . What defines this Artist is the unstoppable love for life, love of nature, love of the world, that drive her true inner freedom. The Alice in her is constantly searching for that inner freedom and constantly asks questions - simple questions, complex questions.

Through abstract painting and abstract sculpture, through figurative sculpture, through representational hypersized portraits, there is  natural consistency in this search. These are all questions, not answers. In some occasions the answer is hidden within the work  itself. Where  the viewer engages in a dialoguer a discovery of their own. Her art is a journey of discovery. Lured by philosophical and Zen questions, her body of work ranges from figurative sculpture, through  large  pop portraits to spontaneous process art experiments in an abstract  oversize format. Sometimes - there is intentional blend of the abstract and the meticulously traditional.

The viewer is invited to connect to the meditative quality of the a oversized realistic paintings and investigate the social and emotional subtext of the portraits and figurative sculptures. While the sculptural works present issues from a global female perspective – the contemporary paintings are universal in their context and without boundaries.

Stop - view - meditate - think - unthink - live - start over with a new perspective. The California Artist lives and works in Los Angeles, California.
