2000/2002

Amid the excitement of the coming of the new millennium, it appears as though Vesselin worked to cultivate a change in his artistic approaches, experimenting with the use of more detailed drawn caricatures placed within his expressionistic worlds of coalescing color. Adorning the contours of these works are corridors of solid color housing fully drawn heads as well as more thoroughly rendered inanimate objects. As viewers will come to find, even the detail of the figures does not remain absolute throughout this cycle as transparent, featureless silhouettes melting into Vesselin’s color corridors can be observed. The stylistic evolution of this cycle marks what would be a change in Vesselin’s future approaches to his paintings.
