Art is imagination. Art is freedom. Art is healing. Art can also be a longterm investment.
After attending a math and physics high school and completing a Master of Science in textile design & engineering at “Gh. Asachi” Technical University of Iasi, Romania, I went to study painting at the University of Arts, in Iasi, my hometown.
In 1995, I moved abroad to pursue my art unencumbered from my family’s expectations. I completed a Master of Fine Arts in theatre at the University of British Columbia, Canada, and a Master of Arts in scenography at the Central Saint Martins College of Art & Design, UK. I also took training in physical performance (Grotowski Method and Body Weather Laboratory) at the Utrecht School of the Arts (HKU), The Netherlands, and in video, photography, and public art at the School of Art and Design Zurich (HGKZ), Switzerland.
Since 2007, most of my work has been incubated and disseminated at ScenoArt, my studio and gallery in Buffalo, NY. My early work was shown throughout Europe and Canada at venues such as Veem Theatre in Amsterdam, Maumaunderground in Barcelona, Museum-Kunst-Palast in Düsseldorf, and Chan Center for the Performing Arts in Vancouver, among others.
