Mihaela Mihalache

I was born in 1992 in Bucharest, Romania.
I live and work in Cluj Napoca.
My paintings reflect a personal research into space as a extension of consciousness .
The personal interest given to the investigation of the concepts of space and artistic self-reference are represented in the personal works created as a result of the mentioned research carried out on the basis of these notions.
