Overview

Preslav Kostov is a London based artist whose work engages with the intricacies of identity and recollection of memories. Employing the technique of automatism, Kostov’s paintings emerge from a cumulative process of self-questioning around past observations.

 

Kostov's imposing compositions dialog with the form and palette of the old master painters, presenting imagined scenes of discovered narratives situated within a liminal realm. His works speak to the enduring reality of human experience.​​​​​​​
