My name is Petar Denchev. I work with video and digital media because it is precisely there that power creates meaning, gains consent, and enforces obedience. I am not interested in the image itself, but in how it functions — whom it serves, what it hides, and how it lies.

I do not believe that art exists in a vacuum. It is always tied to economics, ideology, and institutions. Every artistic practice is political — the question is whether it acknowledges this or pretends to be “aesthetically independent.”

My work is political propaganda. Not as cheap provocation, but out of necessity. Capitalism and imperialism need neither defense nor silence — they already control the media, culture, and language. What is missing is an open, visually clear, and uncompromising counter-position.

I am interested in simplicity and directness — complexity often serves to conceal weak ideas. A clear image is dangerous. A clear position is uncomfortable. This is where my work begins.

I do not seek universal understanding or institutional approval. I seek conflict. Art that does not challenge power merely decorates it.

What I present here is not an invitation to dialogue. It is taking a clear position.
