Donna Dimitrova
Studio & Practice

Donna Dimitrova is a Bulgarian-born artist and designer based in New York. Her work explores identity as a continuous transformation of complementary differences. She believes that change begins within and that identity is never stagnant.

Her interactive worlds reconfigure traditional media through technology, treating it as a material of uncertainty rather than a tool of control. By challenging internal binaries and inviting communal participation she hopes to create spaces where binaries give way to new possibilities for connection.
