BREAKING OUT: ART IN SOFIA

A notable example of such involvement is Krassimir Terziev’s installation Between the Past Which Is About to Happen and the Future Which Has Already Been. Located at the site of the former mausoleum, this work was created as part of the municipality’s sole active programme for temporary public installations. Completed in 2024 after significant delays, the work was designed from the outset to encourage dialogue. It consists of letter-shaped benches arranged in an open circle, spelling out its title. This spatial composition confronts viewers with a paradoxical interplay of temporal layers, encouraging reflection on our position in the present. Steering clear of overt critique, activism or entertainment, Terziev instead offers a place to sit within the urban landscape — though not necessarily one of comfort. Perhaps this subtle balance is what has allowed it to resonate with the city’s inhabitants. A public programme featuring various conversational formats has been introduced alongside the installation.
