About The Artwork
This piece, crafted on a 26cm wooden panel with blue and maroon tones, represents an invented portrait that refers to the extreme situation that migrants sometimes experience in their process of adapting to a new reality. The phrase, inscribed in French, can be translated as: "We foreigners, we always live on the edge of a mental collapse. This artwork belongs to the "Exchange Currency Series" created in 2024, starting from the concept of the "face" on coins. Conceptually, the artwork is part of a project in which the artist, drawing from her own experience, explores the theme of foreignness and the sense of 'not being from here.' Furthermore, it connects with the experiences of others who have undergone the challenges of migration. These artworks are designed to function both individually and in multiple compositions, allowing for installations tailored to the space with as many artworks as desired. Please contact us if you wish to purchase more than one piece to receive a customized offer, reduce shipping costs, and explore additional stock options. The artist accepts custom commissions.

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.
