Self Portrait - Limited Edition of 5 Print

Doina Cojocaru Thanasiadis is a PhD candidate in visual arts at the National University of Arts in Bucharest. Having as a starting point the Refugee Crisis in Europe (2015-), her Doctoral research investigates hegemonic principles that shape our understanding of the topic of displacement, borders, and identity, while exposing power structures that perpetuate inequality. Her work methods explore pathways in artistic research and practice that disrupt relations of dominance in the process of meaning-making. Her methodology opts for synergy, and interpretative multiplicity. She turns towards narrative inquiry and lived experience in order to trace their relation to cultural and social phenomena by combining theory and praxis. Main mediums of expression: Photography, Installations, Video
