Andreana Dobreva's approach to still-life art disrupts the traditional confines of the genre, which is typically characterized by carefully controlled compositions. Her work pulses with life, employing thick brushstrokes that convey motion and energy. Dobreva draws from her background in classical techniques while simultaneously challenging their limitations, resulting in paintings that embody a chaotic, vibrant aesthetic. Influenced by her studies in psychology, Dobreva's art interrogates the historical narratives of still life, blending elements of decay and desire, creating a dynamic interplay between control and chaos that reflects contemporary issues.
Dobreva's paintings unravel the genre's pristine control, coaxing it toward something far more visceral, intoxicating, and untamed. Each canvas pulses with motion, layered with thick, fevered strokes.
Her compositions do not settle. They shift, twist, and breathe as if unwilling to be still for too long. The past lingers in her work, its echoes are undeniable.
