about
MILENA KANCHEVA
VISUAL ARTIST
I create conceptual art, blending analogue and digital techniques with experimental approaches. My photography and cinematography are driven by emotions, surroundings, music, and a deep visual connection to the world. Since 2011, I have been developing visual projects - some of which I have led entirely, from concept and planning to execution and team coordination.
With expertise in video production, editing, and mixed media, I create and capture visuals through photography, cinematography, and motion graphics. I have worked on commercial and artistic projects, as well as creative collaborations. My work has been exhibited in contemporary art spaces and published across various platforms.
For me, art is a language, and I choose visual storytelling to express emotions, ideas, and perspectives that words cannot always convey.
