Olga Yocheva's art is a tribute to simplicity, exploring two different but interconnected motifs: women and crows. In her first series, Olga portrays women as abstracted, nude figures, deliberately omitting facial features to emphasise their universal nature. These figures are not tied to a specific identity, but stand as symbols of collective femininity, strength and resilience, representing the strength and beauty inherent in all women.
In contrast, her series on crows explores the intelligence and complexity of these fascinating birds. Captivated by their ability to memorise knowledge and pass it down through generations, Olga reflects on themes of memory, continuity and wisdom. The complex social networks of crows reflect human connections, making them a poignant symbol of the deeper currents of life.
By juxtaposing these two themes, Skin and Feathers encourages reflection on the interconnectedness of knowledge, identity and life patterns, offering viewers a unique perspective on strength and memory through the eyes of both humans and animals.

Olga Yocheva works with various art forms, including painting, graphic design, performance and video art. She studied art and pedagogy at the Sofia Kliment Ohridski University in Bulgaria and digital video production at the SAE Institute in Leipzig, Germany.
With several solo exhibitions and participation in numerous international art projects, Olga has established a firm place for herself in the contemporary art scene. She currently lives and works in Dresden, Germany.
