Works by Yuliy Takov
Yuliy Takov was born in 1971 in Sofia, Bulgaria where he lives and works. In his paintings he explores the essence beyond the superficial and seeks to challenge the perceptions of what an image represents. He works in series and in each one of them focuses on a different theme. His artistic approach is to stimulate the imagination and to construct notions within the audience, the overarching goal being opening the mind of the viewer to the many meanings within the image and the interpretation beyond its visible bounds. The key themes he delves into are the ego, the concealed limits, freedom and the barriers people put before themselves. In his last works from “The Long Journey” series, the central subject is the artist and the perception of the relevance of his or her works. As he notes: “On one hand the artist is part of the society of his peers and his consequence is challenged. On the other, he replicates himself ad infinitum”. His works are characterized by strength of vision, vibrant spirit and masterful command of the medium.
