Even though he is himself disabled, the teacher from the secondary school of natural science and mathematics believes that any difficulty is surmountable and that people with disabilities are no different from anyone else.

Plamen Boychev has had several solo exhibitions and has taken part in general exhibitions, as well as plein air festivals in Sofia, Bourgas, Varna and Dryanovo.
