Thematic work
[edit | edit source]In 2020, Dimovski held his first solo exhibition in Bosnia and Herzegovina, titled "Red" (Crvena), featuring 24 works painted during the COVID-19 pandemic.[7] The series explores themes of isolation, nostalgia, and interpersonal connection, often portraying figures from the artist’s personal life.[5]
In 2023, he presented "Mothers" (Majke) in dedicated to maternal figures and the theme of female strength in times of societal instability.[9] Critics praised the emotional depth and simplicity of the compositions.[8]
In 2024, he presented "Absurdity of War" in the ruins of a historical building in Mostar, staged symbolically to emphasize its anti-war message.[10]
Other projects
