Brilant Milazimi (b. 1994) lives and works in Gjilan.
Untitled (2024)

Brilant Milazimi’s delicate watercolors, on view at the Shani Efendi House, continue his exploration of memory, trauma, and the subconscious. Through surreal creatures and fragmented forms, Milazimi evokes quiet tension and psychological transformation. These intimate works, presented in the historic setting of the house, offer a striking counterpoint to the large scale paintings he is currently showing at the Hangar for the 5th edition of the Autostrada Biennale.

Milazimi translates his perception of the world that surrounds him into images that are bitter, funny, tender, and weird all at the same time. In 2020, he was awarded the Young Visual Artist Award “Artist of Tomorrow”, Prishtina. In 2022, he participated in the international residency program “Residency Unlimited”, New York.
