“Born in 1975 in communist Romania, I migrated to Canada in 1995 where I established a new life at the other end of the social organization spectrum working in the financial industry. In 2009, after finishing my Master of Business Administration at McGill University and understanding its limitations, I started a process of “extracting” myself from the financial world with more and more incursions into the art world. I started to paint in 2003 and my art practice ran in parallel until 2014 when I moved to Berlin to completely dedicate myself to art.
Directly influenced by my own life experience of escaping human created restraining structures, my art is a search for freedom and for a new and personal paradigm. Over the years, my final results may vary in style, but my process did not change: the first act is to choose the colors closely connected to my emotional state and, in the next step, to define the methodology and its tools. The final and most important act is to let everything flow freely allowing for accidents, but most importantly, for the surprise, defining my artistic search as a desire for novelty and discovery of the “unseen” within the self and its environment, only to uncover their wonderful unity.”

Artistic currents: abstract expressionism, minimalism, op art, post-painterly abstraction, conceptual art
Influences: Yayoi Kusama, Eva Hesse, Agnes Martin, Sol le Witt , Gerhard Richter, Jason Pollock, Mark Rothko
