What you see can mean many things, but what matters now is what it means to you.
Through seemingly nonchalant yet incisive observations and gestures, Flaviu Cacoveanu reflects on everyday life, the surrounding world, and current events, articulating a poetic field in which perception itself becomes a site of “conceptual play”.
He embraces a performative approach that engages language, photography, video, and ready-made objects. Within his practice, these media intertwine in a non-hierarchical way, unfolding as spatial installations. Guided by a profoundly intuitive process, his work remains attentive to the interplay between elements and materials drawn from everyday life and from his immediate physical and mental surroundings.
Flaviu Cacoveanu presents himself as a “con & temporary” artist- a self-definition that reflects his engagement with language, conceptual practice, and the ephemeral, foregrounding process and temporality over the authority of the finished object.
Flaviu Cacoveanu (b. 1989, Cluj, RO) lives and works in Berlin (DE). His practice unfolds on the border of multiple media. His artistic discourse simultaneously embraces- from a performative perspective- photography, video, installation, ready-made objects, and it mainly occurs at the point where they intertwine. His profoundly intuitive process is sensitive to the interplay between the elements and materials he carefully selects.
His works have been exhibited amongst others at Parliament Gallery in Paris (FR), Lutnita Gallery in Chisinau (MD), Liste Art Fair 2024 in Basel (CH), Baronian Gallery in Brussels (BE), NADA Villa Warsaw in Warsaw (PL), Art Brussels 2023 in Brussels (BE), Art Au Centre 2023 in Liege (BE), ART-O-RAMA 2022 in Marseille (FR), The National Museum of Contemporary Art in Bucharest (RO) and at the Art Encounters Biennial 2021 in Timisoara (RO).
