“Transitions” by Artist Simona Ruscheva

A selection of new paintings by London-based artist Simona Ruscheva (previously featured here). Fusing soft gradients and aura-like radiances with sharp edges and bold shapes, Simona Ruscheva offers a contemporary adaption of traditional Eastern European elements:

“Neo-folkloric costumes in vibrant colours correspond to the digital age and inner shifting of perception. Delicate threads construct the fabric of our world. Emerging from the past, their infinite weaving unfolds the present before our eyes and alters the future within ourselves first. The transition carries the symbolism, mysticism and power of culture into the new form — narrating the reimagined tradition, embedded into the works.”
