The work.
For the skaters who met in the Knyazheska Garden, the steps and stone paving around the Soviet Army Monument were part of their own map of Sofia. A ramp gave them another reason to stay, take turns and try the same trick again.
In Yuzev’s painting, the eye moves from the tall stone pedestal to the curve of the ramp. Down there, at street level, the place belongs for a moment to the kids on their boards.
