Ли.Нейно (Li.Near) with Martina Nikova in Sofia, Bulgaria

Looking forward to the opening of this duo exhibition with my dear friend and fantastic fellow artist Martina Nikova. It’s been a long time coming, I’m so glad we got to do this together! Please stop by the opening next Friday, May 27th at Arosita Gallery in Sofia. I’m truly sad to have to miss this but I know that Marti will represent us both better than anyone could!

The exhibition "Lee.Neino" (Li.Near) connects two Bulgarian women artists living in different parts of the world. Boryana Rusenova-Ina - in the Texas Panhandle and Martina Nikova - in overcrowded Sofia. The two artists first met in 2003 as international students at the Columbus College of Art and Design in Columbus, Ohio. Since then, they have been united not only by friendship and art, but also by their common interest in ideas about belonging and more recently-motherhood. In this joint exhibition, the two artists are reflecting on the illusion of a horizon and linearity in life.
