Dian Petrov - Dialogue through XXL

Author: DIAN PETROV, born 1984 in VELIKO Tarnovo.".Dialogue through "timesend with Bulgarian Post but it has not been possible to America for two or three months. Now, because of the war, some of the countries in the Middle East have stopped delivering there. So if someone takes the painting from these two destinations, the shipping price will be different. Greetings, to all.
Signature, certificate."Dialogue Through Time" is a painting born from a reflection on the feminine power, beauty and memory that every person carries within themselves. The three figures are not just characters - they are different states of the same soul: past, present and future. The second painting in the composition is like a memory or a dream - a world that lives in parallel with reality.
The idea arose spontaneously, as a desire to recreate not only human images, but emotions that cannot be expressed in words. Through the free painterly gesture and the rich color palette, I sought the balance between silence and movement, between reality and the inner world.
This is an invitation to the viewer to discover their own story in the composition, because each encounter with the painting reveals a new meaning and a new conversation. The painting arrives rolled up in a well-packaged tube.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ABOUT THE ARTIST

Dian graduated from the National High School of Applied Arts "Trevnenska Shkola", majoring in woodcarving, and then from the Faculty of Fine Arts at the University of Veliko Tarnovo. He has long been fascinated by wood, its warmth and coziness. His skillful hands have sculpted the iconostases of more than three temples in different villages in the region. His work is the carved altar screens of the churches "St. John of Rila" in Petko Karavelovo, "Holy Ascension of Christ" in Radanovo and "Holy Nativity of the Virgin" in Polski Trambesh. Some of the holy images he created are now owned by private collectors in Greece and Italy. He learned the intricacies of icon painting from his grandfather Dimitar Kosev, who was a self-taught artist. It was from him that the Tarnovo native inherited his passion for art and his gift for painting.
“I love experimenting in art and allowing myself different freedoms both as a means of expression and as a technique. In my paintings, I use nets, leaves, soil, plastic. I have painted different images even on cardboard boxes. And my attempt to make a painting on marble turned out to be the most difficult,” the artist smiles.
Contemporary art with its unlimited creative freedom has attracted Dian Petrov for years. Initially, the young artist painted ordinary landscapes, then he was provoked by spontaneous realism, and now his paintings are the embodiment of abstractionism and postmodernism.
The art of the Tarnovo native is already well known to connoisseurs in our country and abroad. He has had solo exhibitions in Sofia, Plodovik, Veliko Tarnovo, etc. He has also participated in many general exhibitions in Bulgaria and abroad. His paintings delight connoisseurs throughout Bulgaria, as well as private collectors abroad, who regularly buy his paintings! He also participated in exhibitions in Hungary in 2024, a solo exhibition at the Grand Hotel Sofia. In 2025, a general exhibition in London at Theholyartgallerie
