Welcome to my room! "My house is translucent, but it's not glass. More like steam. Its walls compress and expand as I will. Sometimes I hold them around me like a shield. And sometimes, I let them move around, in their own space."(G. Spyrideki)
The spaces we love living in will not always stay closed. They open up, they spread out. One might say they transport you somewhere else, in other times, dreams, or memories. Any simple image leads to the discovery of an emotional state. The house together with its outside resembles the person that occupies it.
Bine ati venit in camera mea! "Casa mea este diafana, dar nu de sticla. Mai curand de natura aburului. Peretii ei se condenseaza si se destind dupa dorinta mea. Cateodata ii strang in jurul meu ca pe o armura de izolare... Dar alteori, las peretii casei mele sa se rasfete, in spatiul lor propriu." (G. Spyrideki)
Spatiile pe care le iubim nu vor intotdeauna sa stea inchise, ele se desfasoara. S-ar zice ca ele transporta in alta parte, in alte timpuri, visuri si amintiri. Orice imagine simpla duce la descoperirea unei stari sufletesti.Casa reprodusa in aspectul ei exterior spune un lucru intim despre persoana care o locuieste.

MONDEN

DEGREE/DIPLOMA:
Acryl, charachoal, oil , print on canvas
PROJECT DATE: 2006

The Story
"Monden" is a celebration of everyday life. The story is made up of images that show situations, some of which are connected, some of which are not. The viewer can think of what happened in between any two of these situations. The image revolves around the character, there is always a character that experiences something. The looks betray, the circumstances reveal. A new universe is created in a room, which, in time, will uncover its corners and inhabitants.
Povestea
Monden este o celebrare a vietii cotidiene. Povestea este compusa din imagini care relateaza situatii deopotriva conecte, cat si fara nici o legatura aparenta una cu alta. Am dorit astfel sa las imaginatia privitorului sa decida/determine ce s-a intamplat intre timp. Imaginea se stabileste dupa un anumit tipar, in sensul ca exista mereu un personaj care este expus la experienta. Sunt activate masca ce nu ascunde, infatisarea care tradeaza, imprejurarea care dezvaluie. Un nou univers se creeaza intr-o singura camera, care pe parcurs isi dezvaluie ungherele si locuitorii.

Alice In Wonderland/Alice in Tara Minunilor

MASTER'S DEGREE/MASTER
Acryl, charachoal, oil , print on canvas
PROJECT DATE/DATA 2006 - on going/in desfasurare

The Story
She is characterized as a bright child who often says or does foolish things; in other words, Alice has much in common with any child who is trying to behave like someone older than she is. Her blunders come about because of unfamiliarity rather than stupidity. She is also an unusually conscientious child; note the moment when she is falling down the hall, and she puts the marmalade carefully back on the shelf for fear that the jar might kill someone if she were to drop it.
Povestea
Este caracterizata ca un copil istet, care deseori face boacane si spune lucruri prostesti; cu alte cuvinte are multe in comun cu oricine incearca sa se poarte ca altcineva. Gafele ei vin mai mult din lipsa de cunostinta decat din stupiditate. De asemenea este un copil neobisnuit de onest; de remarcat este momentul cand, cazand in vizuina iepurasului este grijulie cu borcanul de dulceata de portocale, de frica sa nu raneasca pe cineva.

PROJECT DATE: 2006 CHRISTMAS

An upset reindeer
This year, one of Santa Clause's reindeers is upset, it's had enough training, and misses his love. So he decides to get a disguise and run away, not wanting to be found.
Un ren revoltat
Anul acesta renul lui Mos Craciun s-a revoltat, s-a saturat de antrenamentele mosului si de faptul ca nu-si poate petrece Craciunul alaturi de rena sa iubita. Asa ca s-a hotarat sa fuga si, deoarece nu vrea sa fie gasit nici in ruptul capului se deghizeaza. Am resusit sa-l surprindem in cateva ipostaze.

CHIPURILE/
THE FACES


EXERCITIU/EXCERCISES
Acryl on paper/Acril pe hartie
PROJECT DATE: 2007

The Story
It's amasing what can pass on as insignificant, what we consider to be commonplace in everyday's life, or the importance that being conscious of the uniqueness of the moment means to us, the beauty of a gesture that makes a person unique, the paradox of identity and uniformity, the power and weakness of any individual.
Exercitii
Este uimitor ce poate sa treaca drept insignificant, ceea ce consideram banal in limbajul cotidianitatii, de importanta pe care o capata in ochii nostrii constientizarea unicitatii clipei, frumusetea unui gest prins in contratimp, sau cu incetinitorul, surprinderea unui gest unic unei persoane, prin care aceasta devine singulara, paradoxul dintre identitate si uniformitate, puterea si vulnerabilitatea ficarui individ.

CUPLUL/
THE COUPLE


TEMA SEMESTRIALA/SCHOOL THEME Anul II, sem II

PROJECT DATE: 2004
The Story
"A proposition that i have been asked only once, is indefinitely ambiguous if it is not renewed at least once, and the one that made it would be without good will, and maybe regrets talking too much."(Vladimir Jankelevitch - Ireversibilul si nostalgia)
Povestea
"O propunere care mi s-a facut o singura data ramane indefinit indoielnica si ambigua, daca nu a fost reinnoita macar odata; si cel care mi-a facut-o ar fi lipsit, fara indoiala, de bunavointa, si poate chiar de atunci regreta ca ar fi vorbit prea mult.(Vladimir Jankelevitch - Ireversibilul si nostalgia)"
