Rose (2023) Painting by Albena Vatcheva

Albena Vatcheva is a contemporary award-winning artist based in France. The very particular style of the artist is the reflection of a sensual and spiritual sensibility. Her work is always developing toward a symbiosis-imagery of various cultures, legends, and mythology, including those from Persia, India, Egypt, Japan, Thrace, and Byzantium. Each painting is an "eternal shelter" for the best part of the artist - her youthful aspirations of this life and prior incarnations - drawing inspiration from stained glass, Art Nouveau, tales, and fairies from her childhood.

What distinguishes her incredible painting is the oriental magic of fabulous compositions, which communicate fascinating effects, served by an indisputable technical mastery and an ardent outpouring of bright colors. The feminine element explodes in the beautiful forms of refined sexuality in this gallery of figures. The talented Franco-Bulgarian artist brings to her contemporary painting an unexpected style, the richness of which is quickly imposing itself in the world of art.

Albena Vatcheva was born in 1967, in Sofia, Bulgaria. She exhibited at galleries, museums, and art fairs (Superfine Art Fair San Francisco 2020, International Art Fair Art Monaco 2010, Shanghai Art Fair 2010), and won numerous awards for her works: Winner of the department 76 call for projects concerning cultural authors working in the field of heritage 2021; Bronze medal French Artists Salon Grand Palais Paris; Prize of the Salon de Rouen - Salon of Normandy Artists; Prize of the General Council of Orne; City of Clairac Prize, International Painting Fair; City of Grand Quevilly Prize Charles Dullin Theater; Prize of the City of Maromme; Prize of the City of L'aigle.
