KRASIMIR KARABADZHAKOV
By participating in the group exhibition Artists’ Studios with three versions of work on a plane I continue to test myself as I have done in other works and other times. I use a dull metal surface. The resonance – both foundation and principaL – is interrupted. For me this is an opportunity to create a second surface with the figurative compulsions that haunt me.
