Bio

Born in 1974 in Suceava, he lives and works there too. He graduated from the “George Enescu” University of Arts  Iași, sculpture section, in 2000. Since 2003, he’s been teaching arts at the Theoretical High School  Filadelfia and has also started an optional photography course.

 

In his work, he examines the interrelationship between landscape and man-made structures and explores the way in which these elements interact and influence each other. The artist draws on a variety of influences, including those of Caspar David Friedrich, conceptual art and minimalism, to create new synergies of traditional and contemporary structures. His approach consists of assembling visual elements that enable the formulation of a personal aesthetic perspective that confronts and challenges prevailing notions of the human condition. Despite the increasing alienation between modern life and the natural world, his visual commentary does not condemn this new form of alienation. He accepts this new order and the aesthetic paradigm that accompanies it. In essence, he is a DJ who remixes a variety of influences, including personal experiences, places and people.
