Geometric still life_4 Painting

Alida Velea currently lives and works in Bucharest, Romania. With a degree in engineering, the decision to transition to the field of fine arts came from a strong inner passion. Thus, a few years later after graduating from the first university, in 2020, Alida obtained a First Class Honors Degree, in Fine Arts, from the University of Hertfordshire, United Kingdom. Alida's artistic focus lies in the exploration of one's own cultural identity and its interaction with the personal and social events that shape our lives. Her approach to painting predominantly embodies a figurative style, which she integrates into a cubism with slightly abstract or surrealist notes. She often combines this traditional approach with modern technologies and diverse mediums, resulting in the creation of unique and authentic works of art. Her works have been included in various exhibitions, both personal and group, including "RENOVART: Inner Colors, 100 artists for the future" at the Naval League - Magna Grecia, Matera, Italy. Last year, in addition to the personal exhibition "Romania Stamp Collection: 1967-1985" in Piacenza, Italy she exhibited at the Contemporary Art Fair in New York (USA), in Heidenreichstein (Austria), Munich (Germany), Madrid (Spain). This year, her works were part of two group exhibitions in Bucharest (part of the Wanderlust project), the Basel Biennale (Switzerland), Paris Art Fair (France). The upcoming exhibitions include a solo exhibition at the Brancovenesti Palaces, Bucharest (Romania), and another three group exhibitions (Venice, Milano, and Bucharest).
