My fragile appearance contradicts my inner strength that made me face the challenges of Sculpture and obtain best results.
Taking famous artists as inspiring models, as Michelangelo, Brancusi, Calder or Rodin, I enjoyed complete freedom of choice in three dimensional materializations of my passion.

My sculptures include a wide range of materials and techniques:
clay, plaster, wood, marble, bronze, and the unconventional cane, corn husk, wood ashes, tinder, polyurethane foam, wire nets, rope, etc.

I graduated the “Ion Andreescu” University of Plastic Arts & Design in Cluj-Napoca, Romania, in 2003, as valedictorian in the Sculpture Department. My graduation project followed my passion for flying and nature in the “Cradle Song“.
