Adela Giurgiu
Adela Giurgiu (b. 1990, Cluj-Napoca) graduated from the Cluj-Napoca University of Art and Design and is currently a PhD student at the same university. Adela Giurgiu‘s practice could be described as a relentless exploration, transformed into meditation, of both the interior universe and the material environment. Color always shapes up the depths of the imaginary, and the obsessive search for a beginning of consciousness or memory is invariably defeated by the visions born on the surface of the canvas. The subject becomes merely the pretext for a common space where a narrative can unfold; this springs from a constant negotiation between what is possible and what is given.
“Painting is the method through which I wander, hoping that I will meet the numinous. The rest is trial and error.” Adela Giurgiu
