About The Artwork

This piece belongs to the "Exchange Currency Series," which I created in 2024, based on the concept of the "face" on coins. Addressing a cross-cutting feminist issue between the idea of foreignness and gender discrimination, it connects with the global Me Too campaign by portraying a female figure framed by the phrase: "Me too, it happened to me too" in Spanish. Conceptually, this artwork is part of my project exploring the theme of foreignness, drawing from my own experience and connecting with the challenges of migration. These artworks can function both individually and in multiple compositions, allowing for customized installations tailored to the space. If you're interested in purchasing more than one piece, please contact us for a customized offer, reduced shipping costs, and additional stock options. I also accept custom commissions. As an artist of Moldovan origin, I delve into themes of foreignness and explore the value of art with this series. Unlike conventional coins, my coins showcase anonymous faces and offer variable, often arbitrary, selling values. They can be displayed individually or as panels alongside others from the same series, allowing for vast installations. I also create panels on commission according to clients' preferences. As an interesting option for collectors, I offer the possibility to exchange the equivalent value of the percentage that would have been due to me from the sale of these coins for future works of my own creation. This provides collectors with not only a beautiful piece of art but also the opportunity to consider future purchases using this as a form of payment.

Chisinau, 1982. Moldovan artist based in Spain. My approach is figurative and revolves around mainly human themes: metanarratives, death, value, subjectivity, family, among others. I like to approach them from a playful plastic game of repetitions, juxtapositions of colors, deformations in favor of psychological realism, and arbitrary use of elements and resources that I have in my studio. One of the constants in my work is the creation of panels, which, through the repetitive use of representations make a narrative. The visual element of repetition, particularly in the form of portraits, is a graphic obsession for me that captures a world where seriality is a defining feature. These pieces address themes such as death, tempus fugit, obsolescence, using a vibrant color palette inspired by folk art, advertising and Kitsch. The final image is a colorful and humorous antithesis.
