Description
In her illustrations, Alin Kostiov explores the possibilities of a carefree, unencumbered, intuitive drawing, most often the result of internal monologues, diary entries and daily occurrences. The image, constructed from a simple, imprecise line, appears somewhat surrealist, dreamy and hazy, as it is based in the artist’s unpleasant childhood memories of the fruit. The surrealist vibe is enhanced further by the minimalist gold colour intervention breaking up the simple blackness of the drawing.
