Sculptor Milen Ivanchev transforms withered trees in the northwestern Bulgarian town to bring them back to life, but with a new function - cultural and aesthetic. Wooden sculptures of animals, characters from fairy tales and symbols of the alphabet and books, created in his avant-garde way, attract the attention of citizens.
Currently, the artist has been renovating the two tree-sculptures in front of the Ivancho Mladenov Primary School in Vratsa, which have become symbols of literature and writing. On one of the trees one sees 10 books, including the Bible, while on top of the sculpture there is an owl - a symbol of knowledge. Letters from the Bulgarian alphabet are seen on the second tree.
The sculpture depicting an eagle in flight will also be renewed. Residents and guests of the town enjoy the sculpture of the majestic bird and in the trunk of the tree the artist has left the message "Vratsa - Eagles’ Nest".
