"ART IS MY WAY TO SEE"
When Mira was a teenager she moved to France. She majored in Fine Arts and Architecture and worked as an artist and architect in Normandy. Her origins, her loved ones, the Black Sea and it`s light made her come back to her home city, Varna, in Bulgaria.
Thus, the work of Mira is greatly inspired by the light of the changing seasons on the shores of the Black Sea and the reflections in the marine surface. This light pierces her, gives her so much joy and influences her indirectly. The Black Sea gives her a state of freedom and elevation, of searching for the transcendent.
