Originally from Bulgaria, I have been
living in Nottingham, near Sherwood for the last 12 years.
I create
and teach glass painting on reclaimed glasses,
bottles, jars,
CD's, often incorporating recycled and natural
materials.
In my work I'm exploring several
topics: identity, environment, health, community and creativity and
how they connect with each other.
At my
workshops people
(adults and children) learn
how being
creative is
good for
us and the
environment whilst
having fun
too! It's a great way of promoting health
and well-being through art. For enquiries and bookings follow the
link on my website.
This year as part of SAW I am
displaying art works at Ania restaurant inspired by meaningful
strolls in and around Nottingham.
I am also running eco-workshops at
the Transition Sherwood Community Food Garden on 22nd
June, 2-3pm and 3-4pm- decorating discarded CDs and jars, inspired by
the edible plants you see there happily growing, also learn about the
past and present of the garden site. Find out from members about
Transition Sherwood environmental groups and projects and
how to get involved.
Look out for my Yarn Bomb
Installation, near The Manor House Pub, called Memory Sticks.
