© ILIANA OVTCHAROVA,
"Echoes of Containment" is a compelling abstract acrylic composition that explores the tension between freedom and confinement through layered texture, subtle color shifts, and rhythmic linework. The piece is anchored in a muted palette of grayed lilacs, beige tones, and warm taupe, creating an atmosphere that feels both aged and contemporary—a kind of archaeological serenity.

The surface is heavily textured, resembling crumbling plaster or eroded stone, with an almost tactile topography. These sculptural textures introduce a sense of physical history to the canvas, as though it's a wall bearing the imprint of past stories. Thin, precise lines in crimson red outline a roughly rectangular grid that encloses and intersects the chaotic textures, forming a visual architecture—like blueprints layered over a deteriorating structure. This spatial geometry evokes the sense of systems trying to organize what resists containment.

A vertical red rectangle, deliberately opaque and solid, breaks the surface like a symbolic key or a sealed entrance. It’s echoed by thinner linear elements across the surface, suggesting paths, conduits, or attempts at communication. These elements hint at a lost or suppressed message, giving the piece an emotive stillness, as if it holds a secret, but only offers fragments.

Overall, the painting reads as a poetic reflection on structure versus chaos, silence versus expression, and memory embedded in surfaces. It invites the viewer to linger, search, and decode.
„Отгласи на ограничението“ е завладяваща абстрактна композиция с акрил, която изследва напрежението между свободата и затвореността чрез наслагвания на текстура, фини цветови преходи и ритмична линейна структура. Произведението е изградено в приглушена палитра от посивели люлякови тонове, бежово и топъл тауп, създавайки атмосфера, която едновременно напомня за нещо отминало и съвременно – своеобразно археологическо спокойствие.

Повърхността е силно текстурирана, напомняща рушаща се мазилка или ерозирал камък, с почти осезаем релеф. Тези скулптурни текстури придават физическа историчност на платното, сякаш стената носи отпечатъци от отминали разкази. Тънки, прецизни линии в кървавочервено очертават груба правоъгълна решетка, която обхваща и прорязва хаотичните текстури, създавайки визуална архитектура – като чертеж, наложен върху разпадаща се структура. Тази пространствена геометрия създава усещане за системи, опитващи се да овладеят онова, което се съпротивлява на ограничение.

Вертикален червен правоъгълник – плътен и непрозрачен – нарушава повърхността като символичен ключ или запечатан вход. Той намира отражение в по-тънки линейни елементи, разпръснати по повърхността, напомнящи за пътища, канали или опити за комуникация. Тези форми загатват за загубено или потиснато послание, придавайки на творбата емоционална неподвижност, сякаш съдържа тайна, но предлага само фрагменти.

В цялост картината се възприема като поетичен размисъл върху структурата и хаоса, мълчанието и изразяването, и паметта, запечатана в повърхности. Тя приканва зрителя да се задържи, да търси и да разчита.

My artistic expression is deeply influenced by my background in architecture and design, shaping a distinctive approach that blends structure with emotion. My paintings are not merely visual compositions, but explorations of transformation—both in form and meaning. I draw inspiration from the adaptability of spaces and the ever-shifting relationship between perception and reality.

Influences:

Adaptive Reuse & Transformation – the ability of spaces and materials to evolve over time.

Constructivism & Bauhaus – emphasis on structure, composition, and functional aesthetics.

Deconstructivism – fragmentation, controlled chaos, and dynamic movement in form.

Abstract Expressionism – emotion-driven compositions, texture, and spontaneity.

Minimalism & Spatial Awareness – the power of simplicity and negative space.

Kinetic Art & Optical Illusion – the perception of movement and shifting perspectives.

Layering & Patina – inspired by weathered surfaces, urban decay, and time-worn textures.

Industrial & Organic Contrast – a balance between raw, mechanical forms and organic, evolving patterns.

My work doesn’t fit into a single category and medium —it constantly adapts, drawing inspiration from the tension between structure and fluidity, control and spontaneity.

Моето артистично изразяване е дълбоко повлияно от опита ми в архитектурата и дизайна, което оформя характерен подход, съчетаващ структура с емоция. Картините ми не са просто визуални композиции, а изследвания на трансформацията – както във формата, така и в смисъла. Вдъхновявам се от адаптивността на пространствата и от вечно променящата се връзка между възприятието и реалността.

Влияния:

Адаптивна употреба и трансформация – способността на пространствата и материалите да се развиват с времето.

Конструктивизъм и Баухаус – акцент върху структурата, композицията и функционалната естетика.

Деконструктивизъм – фрагментация, контролиран хаос и динамично движение във формата.

Абстрактен експресионизъм – емоционално водени композиции, текстура и спонтанност.

Минимализъм и пространствено съзнание – силата на простотата и на негативното пространство.

Кинетично изкуство и оптични илюзии – възприятието за движение и променящи се гледни точки.

Наслояване и патина – вдъхновени от повърхности, белязани от времето, градско разпадане и текстури с история.

Контраст между индустриално и органично – баланс между сурови, механични форми и органични, еволюиращи модели.

Моето творчество не се вмества в една-единствена категория и медия  – то непрекъснато се адаптира, черпейки вдъхновение от напрежението между структура и флуидност, контрол и спонтанност.
