A nice quote from Ioanna Zberea
Artist
Ioana Zberea was born in Romania, in 1985. She graduated from the University of Fine Arts in Bucharest and she currently works in Amsterdam. She dedicated herself to art after operating in the software development field.
Preoccupied with her surroundings, she uses the unusual and the ordinary aspects of nature as a starting point for introspection.
The artist constantly seeks a sincere aesthetic and a real self by continuously questioning the known conventions about beauty, balance, and peace.
Her main inspiration is nature, which she perceives as a mirror, almost. While contemplating, each detail that strikes her attention might become a subject of introspection. She took on this personal journey to observe and accept that beauty is given by the coexistence of wilted parts with
what is delicate and bright. They are as inseparable in our environment, as they are inside us, she notices.
Ioana Zberea paints with oil on a surface made of overlapping strips of jute. She uses this material as a metaphor for reality, full of roughness and
unsmoothed.
“We shall talk” is an invitation to contemplate the surounding profoundly, deep enough that we can reach our inner self.
