Florentina Rizea

I’m a visual artist based in Romania. My work is deeply inspired by nature’s quiet cycles: birth, growth, transformation and decay, and how these rhythms reflect our inner lives. I often paint from emotion, letting the wind, light and landscape around me guide my gestures.

My process is intuitive and tactile, working mostly in oil on canvas. I don't aim to reproduce what I see, but rather to feel and dissolve into it. Over time, form becomes fluid and light turns into color.

I hope my paintings offer viewers a moment of reflection, a pause, a space where something personal can awaken.
