"Isolation memories" was created during the lockdown from COVID. I was at home, spending most of my time waiting for my garden to come to life. Something that I don't usually get to see since I have a full time job. Every day I would check what has changed. It was a kind of ritual to get me through the days, weeks and months.
This reminded me the pleasure of small things. How to selebrate the present and as life goes on and nothing stays forever the same, I thought that this, shall too come to an end. So I photographed this moment of my life through the flowers in the garden.

DESCRIPTION
AUTHOR
I am an artist and photographer from Bulgaria.
To me photography is an exploration of the mind. A kind of fiction, offering a glimpse of a co-existing reality. A way of seeing a world floating between unspoken dreams yet-to-be and the endless nostalgia for the time that has never been, with a surreal motif. Since photography is born in a split-second, I find it being the perfect medium to show a fraction of a supposed reality. A fraction that does not describe, but merely suggests. A fraction that has no beginning or an end, but is bound to have an afterlife, long and rich as the viewer’s memory.
