ALINA PAPAZOVA

Alina Papazova is born in 1993 in Sofia, where she currently resides. She works in the field of ceramics and illustration, while also experimenting with other forms of visual art. She is a part-time teacher and PhD student in Ceramics and Porcelain at the New Bulgarian University, where she completed her bachelor’s and master’s degrees. Over the years, Alina has been part of numerous group exhibitions, locally and abroad, and she’s also produced five solo exhibitions. Alina includes in her art elements which are symbolically influenced by different cultures, sometimes transformed in a humorous way. Placing herself in the context of their world, which is diametrically opposed to modern life, she creates a process of integrating some of their core teachings into her own culture. The main one is related to our relationship with nature and its sanctity.
