…WHERE TREES ARE
TO BE CUT DOWN
INTO SOME
WOODEN BLOCKS
COME TO A PLACE WHICH IS ALL NATURE !
The most majestic landscape
To live with romanian artists
Who can paint
EVERYTHING
Amazing skills Is there something for them in our contemporary
ART WORLD ?
A niche ?
DIFFERENT TIME LAPS
LANGAGE BARRIER
ARTISTS GATHERED TOGETHER
SOME PLACES ARE JUST A STAGE WHERE ONE CAN ACT
A CAREFULLY ORCHESTRATED
CHALLENGE
AFTER
MY
WEAK
BREAK
UP
IN A SENTIMENTAL
ABYSS
TO HAVE TO CLIMB TO
A LOCATION,
TO WORK Painting after 27 years
On a wooden block, a chopped tree
Two sunny weeks in the Carpathian Mountains
AND SUDDENLY
AN INTUITION
THAT
SOMETHING IS
WRONG ….
