Biography

Sofia Dimova born 1996 in Varna, Bulgaria is a multidisciplinary artist.  She graduated from Minerva Academy (Groningen, The Netherlands) with a degree in Fine Arts in 2019. In her practice, Sofia combines different materials and techniques that help her to create an interconnection between personal, fundamental and socio-political issues that seek content and message beyond classical aesthetics. The visual language she uses is blunt and direct, and follows its own logic. This rebellion against trivial artistic appearance is extremely effective among the audience.

The installation re-examines the digital ego through a moving 3D scan of the artist displayed on a small LCD screen. A mirrored frame overlays the viewer's live reflection onto the digital portrait, creating a shifting dialogue between virtual identity and embodied presence. The work questions how beauty standards, digital reproduction, and technological mediation influence the way we see and inhabit our bodies.
