"Love is in the Air"
Online Exhibition
Especially for Valentine's Day
February 12 - 20, 2024
February is the most mysterious, mystical, romantic, and beloved month of the year. "Malak Sechko" – as the old Bulgarians lovingly called it, perhaps due to the fierce cold and snowstorms or because of the fewer days on the calendar.
Yet February is also a symbol of love and reverence for elevated emotions. A month when we express our feelings and respect for our partners, their devotion, and boundless care.
But how can Love be painted or portrayed on a canvas? The answer lies in the online exhibition "Love is in the Air."

About the exhibition:
Isn't everything about Love, and isn't it all around us? This provocative question is posed by artist Daniela Stoykova through her paintings in the exhibition "Love is in the Air." The artist recreates large abstract hearts, futuristic metropolises, with lovers in the foreground, or colorful landscapes featuring human beings immersed in love.
Are these naive and pure scenes, adorned with "bouquets" of heart-shaped balloons in all colors, or are they wonderful, love-illuminated people? You decide.
Because Love is everywhere and surrounds us, seduces us with its colors and hues! In the light that flows from the bright tones in the cycle "Evening Cityscapes," couples share their feelings, perhaps even their first tender kiss, amid the wet, urban streets. In this gentle solitude, lovers, lost in conversation and unaware of the falling ethereal snow, walk together in the same direction, each listening to the other's voice and mesmerized by each other's gaze... Because Love is everywhere!
Among the gentle messages and shared embraces, the yearned-for or stolen kisses, the opium of euphoria, the joy of accidental touches, and the magic of glances, the characters in the paintings intertwine in the dance of passion and love... and the whispering melody of the song – "My heart beats wildly, a heart that loves you," because Love is everywhere!
Come and see the paintings from our "Bazaar for Lovers" live at Art Gallery "Daniela Stoykova" – Tsar Asen St. 61, Sofia.
We are waiting for you!
