Anton Terziev's paintings, as well as the works of a number of artists with similar sentiments, are vivid proof of the significant changes in Bulgarian art during the years of transition and of one of the qualitatively different new models through which it expresses itself. He is a typical artist of his generation and at the same time stands out for the expressiveness of his works.

In his paintings Anton Terziev brings together two visual conventions - the digital-media image of modernity on the one hand and painting, through its classical means and timeless problematics on the other. This coming together is confusing and slippery to interpret, because in its very purpose it is nonsense. On the one hand, the subjects, signs and texts it depicts are subject to lightning discernment: these are media images, mass images with their primitivism, simplistic and manipulative reality. On the other hand, these images are immersed in a classically "juicy" pictorial tactility at the atomic level, which "remembers" the intrinsic value of its own pictoriality and thus somehow makes these banal media images "historically significant". The manipulative and "self-understandable" is by nature implicated in a "high" manipulation, that of painting, which is equally ironically playful and arbitrary, both to the mass image and text and to painting itself. The low is elevated to the high and conversely the high is reduced to an expression of the low. The result is an ambiguous play and even an annihilation of the possibility of "normal reading". Thus the method of this painting leads naturally to the introduction of doubts and questioning. One of them is about the strategies of contemporary art. And this is an essential question that few contemporary Bulgarian artists have managed to pose as qualitatively as this artist does.

Anton Terziev insists that "art is politics represented in symbolic form". Indeed, the "meaninglessness" he achieves in his strategy of contrasts and instability is authentically political. Within the controlled arbitrariness that a thoughtful and very talented artist who is only 26 years old can afford.

Anton Terziev, a contemporary Bulgarian artist, is a master of using sharp irony as his artistic tool to engage with various contemporary subjects. His works are characterized by a profound use of iconography that conveys a stark and critical imagery. In his artistic repertoire, Anton skillfully weaves together elements of stakes, skills, and storytelling, resulting in figurative contemporary art that carries a fine touch of social commentary, humor, and messages about the artist's condition.

Anton Terziev draws inspiration from two distinct sources. Firstly, his art is often born from real-life occurrences, unfolding around him in a way that sparks his creative process. Secondly, his imagination plays a pivotal role in his work, allowing him to craft vivid and thought-provoking imagery. Each of his creations is garnished with subtle elements of pop culture, extracted from movies and books. 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.

Anton Terziev's career as a painter is intricately intertwined with his identity as a writer. His ideas take shape in the form of paintings and art objects, reflecting his diverse talents. Beyond painting, he brings his artistic vision to life through performances, filmmaking, and design, demonstrating a multifaceted approach to creative expression.
