More than 40 works by Petar Boyadzhiev and Daniela Zekina will be on display in an exhibition of prints and paintings at the 'Ikar' Gallery in Sofia. The exhibition will officially open on June 24, 2025, at 6:00 p.m., Zekina told BTA’s “BG World” section. 


Zekina's section is titled "In the Sun", while Boyadzhiev's is titled "Context". The show will run until 30 July 2025.

Daniela and her husband Petar settled in Canada with their children in 1993. In a previous interview with Radio Bulgaria, the artist described her work as follows:


"I try to show what happens in the imagination — the invisible world within us. The ideas and things a woman loves and wants to present to the outside world. That's why I always start with a face or a female figure, and then try to find additional elements that reveal what's happening inside her mind and imagination."
