The Unimaginable
Iliana Helena Jordanov
For each individual, pattern represents a unique calculated code structure. Not everyone experiences art (in this case pattern) in the same way, but it may stimulate emotions in a viewer.
I am interested in creating a particular setting in my paintings: where a different imaginary world exists that becomes an almost dream-like unreality. This other world had been drawn from gathered information on prehistoric Slavic and contemporary western pattern. Throughout my work I have tried to create a feeling of stillness, elegance and illusion, because what is the real in the imaginary aspect of pattern making?
