Exploring 5 
Hybrid Styles 
in Modern 
Painting
Modern painting is no longer 
limited to one clear style. Today, 
artists often mix different 
approaches, creating works that 
feel fresh, complex, and harder to 
define. Yoan Iglev’s exploration 
of hybrid styles shows how 
painting continues to evolve by 
combining ideas rather than 
following strict rules.
1. Abstract and 
Figurative Mix
In this style, recognizable shapes or 
figures appear within abstract forms. 
The viewer sees both clear imagery 
and expressive textures, creating a 
balance between reality and emotion.
2. Digital and 
Traditional Painting
Many contemporary paintings are 
influenced0 b1y digital vis0u2als, clean 03 04
lines, glitches, or pixel-like patterns 
blended with hand-painted marks. 
This mix creates tension between 
precision and human touch.
3. Minimalism with 
Expression
Simple compositions are 
combined with bold gestures or 
textures. The result feels calm but 
still full of energy, where small 
details carry strong impact.
4. Material and 
Concept Blending
Artists experiment with unusual 
materials or layered surfaces. 
Here, the physical texture 
becomes part of the artwork’s 
meaning, not just decoration.
5. Fragmented 
Narratives
Instead of telling one clear 
story, paintings use symbols 
and broken imagery. Viewers 
interpret meaning through 
feeling and association.
