DESSISLAVA TERZIEVA

Dessislava Terzieva is a contemporary Bulgarian-American artist whose practice encompasses collage, sculpture, installation and performance. Born at the sunset of the communist regime in Bulgaria, Terzieva’s process and material choices are reflective of growing up in the flux of radical change. Employing a utilitarian approach, she favors pre-existing materials gathered from her personal experience and immediate environment, applying subtle transformations in order to alter their function, even if that means simply changing their context. The work serves as a bridge between gaps, be they conceptual or real, while simultaneously expounding the paradoxical nature of being.
