2. Amid Carlos and Sofia

    six drawings mounted on wooden panel mounted on ceiling of Swimmingpool Art Space, 2018

 

 

For this work I researched on the relationship of the citizens of Sofia to the hot springs in the city centre. I broadened this research, when I encountered various fountains in the cityscape on squares of remnant soviet character. 

My previous research on the fascist aesthetic of Carlos Buigas' fountain art made this meeting of superimposed human design and miraculous natural phenomenon amid Sofia all the more fascinating. In the show I read a passage of the notes that I made during our stay to our audience and presented a panel with six drawings.
