Yanko Tihov
“The artist’s vision is not constrained by physical limits or boundaries. I understand how imperative it is for creative people to be able to travel to where ever they feel safe and nourished. Having this freedom to move and travel, I believe artists push the future ahead of them. They bring hope and unity to a world that needs their vision.”
