Milena Gaytandzhieva

Artist & Designer

The experiment and the constantly search for something new, fun or provocative are the meaning of my work.

I like to entertain the spectators and to amuse myself too.

Art Statement

I cannot live without creating art. I am а creative person and just cannot work anything else except art or a job which is connected to art like design for example. I search art everywhere.
