Ingrid Juncanariu

I’m a Romanian visual artist working primarily in painting and mixed media. Drawing on a background in game development, VFX, and mural painting, I construct surreal domestic scenes where bodies, objects, and everyday rituals begin to fragment or overflow. My works explore coping mechanisms, vulnerability, and the small escapes we invent to endure contemporary life.
Through a hybrid visual language that merges figurative painting with sculptural extensions, I explore identity, appetite, and the psychological tension between control and collapse.
