Inside Out Print

My story started some time ago in Transylvania, where I was born in a family that mixed 3 different cultures, Greek, German and Russian. Soon after I had finished my engineering education I left Romania and I lived in different countries as a global nomad. The contact with varied cultures, developped and enhanced greatly my visual lexicon and cognition. While studying Spanish philology I become familiar with the influence of Arabic culture in Southern Spain and I fell in love with the art resulting from that encounter. At some point in my life I had a regular job and eventually a bore-out. I saved myself quitting it and retreating into Hindu and Buddhist philosophy followed by living in an Ashram for 2 years. This changed not just my world views and my beliefs but also influenced the way I express mysef in art. While my engineering training gave me the shapes, the strict, exact forms and structure, the Arabic - Spanish and the Easterns cultures opened myself to colours, curves and random shapes. All these are embodied in my work for you to enjoy .
