On 5 July, the Arts Learning Center at the State Cultural Institute – Cultural Centre "The Palace" hosted the opening of the exhibition "In the Heart’s chapel" by artist Simeon Neychev – Vibhuti. The exhibition features twenty-two paintings in which the artist explores the relationship between the human inner world and the realm of spiritual experience through abstract forms, vibrant colours, and expressive painterly gestures.
The opening began with a talk entitled “The Spiritual Heart of Man”, during which the artist shared the ideas and creative journey behind the exhibition. The atmosphere was further enriched by a concert of Native American flute music, whose gentle and mystical melodies complemented the artistic message of the exhibition.
Working primarily with acrylic paints, Simeon Neychev – Vibhuti combines abstract symbolism with an expressive visual language. Created mainly using a palette knife and his fingers, the paintings evoke inner states, symbolic imagery, and personal spiritual explorations, inviting visitors to pause, reflect, and engage with the works on a deeper level.
We would like to thank Simeon Neychev – Vibhuti and everyone who joined us for this inspiring encounter with contemporary art. The exhibition "In the Heart’s chapel" will remain on view at the Arts Learning Center of The Palace until 15 July.
