Ana Pireva was born in Bulgaria and finished her Diploma for Fine arts at the Dresden University of Fine Arts at the painting class of Prof. Ralf Kerbach. She is a drawer, painter, lithographer and papermaker, member of the International Association of Papermakers and Paper Artist (IAPMA)

In the process of elucidating withing her artistic practice, Ana Pireva started a profound research about the materiality and the sustainability of her paintings. She has been deeply involved with stone printing, paper making and Chinese calligraphy techniques. The dedication to these techniques presents novel prospects for collaboration with colleagues, thereby elevating the standard of work, irrespective of the geographical location. The systematic approach to the materials (paper, ink, and water) aids her in the development of novel methods of work during times of deprivation.

  • Hands of perception (last edited: 2023) author(s): Ana Pireva connected to: EU4ART_differences This exposition is in progress and its share status is: visible to all.
    The field of my artistic practice stretches between three poles or materials and techniques. This is about the technique of drawing, the litho stone and the paper as a carrier material and at the same time a design element. These three poles are linked to one another on a wide variety of levels. Ever since I've explored the notion of research in my artistic practice, I've been documenting my thoughts on the medium of drawing in relation to craft. In early 2023 I started my project "Hands of perception" by working in papermaking and printmaking workshops in new locations and documenting this experience.
