When There are No Words Left
2025
75 B "Tsar Simeon" St.
Sofia Dimova leads us to one of her urban interventions titled When There are No Words Left in which she transforms unused commercial signs into carriers of messages connected to historical events and contemporary political issues.
Through performance and visual language, she draws attention to the hidden layers of the urban environment.
Her appeal is to listen closely to the bird’s song, which will lead you into the past. “When There are No Words Left, silence will find you.” Sofia Dimova began her practice of working with abandoned commercial signs carrying poetic messages in 2023 in the city of Varna.
Nine Elephants provides the opportunity and platform for the artist to continue and expand this initiative in Sofia.
The performance is part of Sofia Performance Night.
Sofia Dimova (1996) is a multidisciplinary artist born in Varna. She graduated from Minerva Art Academy (Groningen, Netherlands) with a degree in Fine Arts in 2019. In her practice Sofia Dimova combines various materials and techniques that help her create an interconnectedness between personal, fundamental and socio-political issues.
In partnership with Oborishte District.
