Radina Kordova is a mixed media performance artist from Bulgaria, currently living and working in Groningen, The Netherlands. Radina draws inspiration from speculative fiction, solar punk, human behavior, and deep listening. She reflects on post-human environments by creating performance -ย installations, sculptures, costumes, and textual pieces. Her practice is driven by storytelling, sonic explorations, experimenting, andย material reaseach. Radina loves to collaborate and next to being an autonomous artist, she works towards organizing, curating,ย and production. She has obtained a BFA in "FineArts" from Academy Minerva and an MFA in โMedia, Art, Design, and Technologyโ at the Frank Mohr Institute and is currently working for Groningen-based art institutions like Kunstcentrum de Ploeg and Gallery Noorderlicht.ย
I live in a world that confuses me, scares me and only sometimes awes me. I have recognized within me that telling stories is what helps me express these feelings - sonic narratives, verbal diapasons, and speculative ramblings. Material research and experimentation fill in the non-tangible, dream-like output I produce. Collectivity awes me, it's a warm blanket.ย ย
