In this work, artist Iren Mihaylova explores the depths of the unconscious and absence through a play of bright colors and spectacular figures. The canvas comes alive with a bold provocation, where disguises and masks hide, but at the same time reveal inner truths. The background of a blue universe evokes reflections and dreams that mix, awakening deep emotions. Every detail, every brushstroke invites the observer to immerse themselves in a vibrant reverie, both personal and universal, and to contemplate the subtle nuances of the human condition.
