One day he dared to laugh at Eros, better known as Cupid, who was practicing with his bow. This, feeling humiliated by the arrogant god, he decided to teach him a lesson. When Apollo was hunting in the forest, he saw in the distance a beautiful young woman named Daphne, who was actually a nymph.

Eros decided to seize the moment and shot two arrows. The one that shot Apollo was made of gold, which produced passionate love. However, Daphne was shot with a lead arrow, the effect of which was exactly the opposite, to feel hatred and revulsion towards the god who had fallen in love with her.

Apollo then decided to chase Daphne wherever she went until he got her love, but Daphne, under the effects of the lead arrow, fled as she could from him. Upon reaching the Peneo River, Daphne, tired of so much flight and just when Apollo was able to reach her, asked her father for help, who was none other than the river god. He, having compassion for her daughter, decided to do the only thing that he could save her: he turned her into a tree, the laurel.

Artist Statement: "Art helps me balance the inner chaos, the thousands of sensations that I deal with on a daily basis." Born in Romania and currently residing in Spain, I draw inspiration from the landscapes that surround me. In my art, especially in my landscapes, if you take a closer look, you can discern the melancholy of my homeland and the joy I find here in Spain. I invite viewers to join me on this journey. My primary mission as an artist is to awaken the viewer's senses and encourage them to embark on a deeper exploration of the world that surrounds us. I firmly believe that art possesses the remarkable power to unveil the concealed beauty and enigma inherent in humanity, and I hope that my work serves as a conduit for this revelation. I am deeply fascinated by the experiences I undergo when attempting to capture the intricate relationship between emptiness and desire. In each brushstroke, I seek to evoke a sense of intrigue and contemplation. My pieces resonate with emotions and thoughts that often lie dormant, awaiting the right moment to surface. While I prefer working with both oil and acrylic, I maintain a curious spirit about various techniques, colors, forms, and surfaces. I am constantly experimenting and endeavoring to push the boundaries of my artistic expression. I aspire for my work to serve as a testament to the profound connection between art and the human experience, acting as a bridge between inner turmoil and external serenity. For those who choose to delve into my artistic universe, I encourage you to rediscover the world with fresh eyes, to appreciate the hidden beauty that surrounds us, and to embark on a journey of self-discovery. My art reflects not only my soul but also serves as a mirror in which we can catch a glimpse of our own.
