About
The work of Ivaylo Stoyanov focuses on exploring the architectural spaces and their loading with new meanings and values. It goes beyond the usual urban environment to draw a new landscape - unreal, cosmic, but still a human trace.

The Ivaylo Stoyanov’s Corner Spaces are two dimensional, but in depth they seem to be three dimensional. Their essence however is the crossing of realities, which involves time. The time of the artist himself is developed as a positive in the field of contemporary photography. The concept of its corners exists as a metaphor of the place, which every person takes in society and this place is the crossing point of the self and its present. Experience enriched by images, which once created thickens and begins existence in their own crossing realities. The Corners are colorful and the contrast of the complementary colors can twist you and make you infused in the wavelengths, which will make you sensible for visible and invisible worlds
