Sarieva/Gallery, Plovdiv
Sarieva – Residency is a program which presents artist with the opportunity to work in a new comfortable environment, to create and present works and projects, to collaborate with experts in the field. The residency combines artistic, research and educational activities in an innovative way. The artist works in an established art institution and in the creative environment of an always developing art city like Plovdiv. Melania Toma (b. 1996) grew up in Italy and is currently living and working in London. She is the third resident of Sarieva – Residency.

Maria Nalbantova, Post-Tools #3, 2021
wrenches, cutting discs, 121 x 104 cm
I often work with found objects, images, materials and tools that become building blocks according to context in telling a particular story. One such example is the construction trolley turned seascape rebuilt, which is part of the Multiple Use series, 2019. I made it as a reaction to the overdevelopment of the Bulgarian Black Sea coast, where numerous hotels, retaining walls and abandoned concrete complexes line our seaside, forming an often anti-utopian landscape for rest and relaxation.
