Exhibition “The Fifth Dimension” | 01.08 - 10.09.2025

​

 

“The Fifth Dimension” is not a physical place, but a vibrational state — where matter dissolves into energy, the image becomes a code, and the body turns into a messenger of the unconscious. It is a realm of the beyond: beyond space, time, logic, even beyond identity. This exhibition brings together five artists who — though different in era and language — open portals to this transcendental field.

 

Georges Papazoff, one of the first Bulgarian surrealists, experiences the fifth dimension through the autonomous energy of dreams and the subconscious. In his paintings, forms flow, dissolve, and reemerge in psychic landscapes where the viewer loses themselves like in a mirrored world. Papazoff is a prophet of the inner dimension — of the journey inward, into the deep reality of the soul.

 

Pavel Koichev, through his sculptural visions, transforms nature and the human figure into metaphors of cosmic cycles. In his work, the figure becomes a bearer of the archetype — not merely a body, but a symbol of transition, of the possibility to merge with earth, water, and spirit. His material speaks, breathes, dreams.

 

Velichko Minekov overlays philosophical gravity and classical rigor onto the border between historical and personal time. His sculptures — often monumental — do not stand still in bronze but resonate like explosions of memory and loss. In them, the fifth dimension is a weight — the invisible burden of history that nonetheless propels us forward.

 

Rassim, since the 1990s, has embodied the idea of metamorphosis in his avant-garde practice. His body is canvas, concept, and action at once. From extreme physical transformation to media-based autodeconstruction, he crosses boundaries of gender, image, and cultural identity — offering the body as a passage through reality, through which the viewer might see themselves laid bare.

 

Kaloyan Vasilev, the youngest participant, acts as a mediator among these layers. His works vibrate with contemporary traces of spirit — emotional structures, minimal forms, and colors that emit frequency rather than message. He speaks through light, silence, and disintegration — transforming ordinary materials into conduits of profound contemplation.

In the Fifth Dimension

 

art is no longer an object,

but an experience,

not a narrative,

but a vibration.

Here the viewer does not observe —

but enters.

Does not interpret —

but connects.
