my projects

The series presented here shed light on my current concerns, seeking to identify visual patterns that recur, to varying degrees, and sometimes almost obsessively, in each series. The context in which the subject is seen is crucial.

Thus, playing with distance, circling around the object (The Corselet), traversing patterns of representation can produce the indecipherable, the familiar, a loss of meaning, or a new configuration of reference points. Looking closely, observing from afar, being in the midst of movement (Between A&B), encountering reflections (Blend in, Reflected events), the reversals, and the doubles of reality (Light just beyond red, The place). My photography practice continuously challenges the certainties of perception, both in the abstraction of form and in the identification of figures.

recovered memory

This archive rather contains the period 1989 – 1997, when I was studying at the Ion Andreescu Academy of Fine Arts in Cluj, a city that gradually became my new “home”.

commissions

I cover public and personal events, provide images for editorials, documentaries, theatre, and dance performances, backstage images, music videos, and brand stories.
