Синът му е нарисуван в различни ситуации, моменти от формиращите му години. Но не буквално. Тук Терзиев поглежда и към собственото си детство. Той проследява как се променят понятията за свобода, безгрижие, отговорност, вина. Безвременността е нишката между работите в тази селекция. Може би за да покаже, че този период не е чак толкова различен между поколенията? “Истинският” живот изглежда като нещо голямо, далечно и страшно, но едновременно с това преборимо, поне във фантазията. Един удар с прашката и врагът е на земята.
Извън съвременното изкуство, Антон Терзиев е от първите киноблогъри в България. В този ред на мисли, лесно може да си представим картините тук и кинематографично, като части от по-голяма история – защо кучето в “Тихи бунтове 3” гледа към нас? Знае ли момчето какво изобразява свастиката на дланта му? На колко години си “твърде стар, за да умреш млад”? Историята зад изложбата продължава в главите ни. Следващите кадри са интерпретациите ни на тези въпроси, а кодът към разбирането им е да ги припознаем с неразрешените въпроси от собственото ни детство. Ако не можете, значи потискате нещо.

Embedded within every piece is a narrative, a metatext that enriches the viewer's experience without overwhelming them, for Anton believes that good art communicates softly but effectively.
What distinguishes Anton's work is his unwavering commitment to leaving his audience with a sense of open-ended wonder. His pieces invite viewers to engage in a dialogue with the art, encouraging them to interpret, question, and explore the narratives he presents. Choosing the perfect title for his works is a challenge that he often tackles by drawing inspiration from literature, cinema, or music.
