Details

"A creator of an exclusive figurative world, Milushev has managed to maintain over the years a high level of its enigmatic characters. Their individuality is formed of a number of characteristics that easily can be accepted and hard to forget. I speak for those who appreciate the artist. Because there are viewers who never reach him - unfortunately! 

Consolidated to the synthesis, the artist's figurative world manifests one merciful and kind attitude towards man and animals. Humanist at heart, Milushev does not judge, does not reprimand, he forgives. The soft, rounded simplicity of the figural distortion shows the innocent sensitivity of the artist who moves delicately the pastel colourfulness in a small, but perfectly served space. The characters are usually naked and it is amazing it is not conspicuous at all. On the contrary - their nakedness is taken for naturalness. The rounded, devoid of details bodies are particularly caressing and for them the devoted force of embrace - loving or friendly is very typical. The Embraced stay solid and inseparable as if set up for eternity. The evanescence of flattery is focused stable and indestructible. The artist believes in the great power of love and incorporates into its circle the friendship, animal, and eroticism.

 

Amusingly original is the erotic world of the artist, where, often, the human couple is frozen a Nirvana, full of gentle humour."
