/SAC, Berthelot 5
We are pleased to invite you to the closing event of "The Light of Recent Events", by Mircea Suciu.
"For me, art is dramatic. The artistic process is performative and therapeutic. It is a way of living, of living together. All the images I bring forth are direct and honest, they do not hide behind special effects for the sake of aesthetics. I want a direct confrontation with fear, with the fear that humanity carries." - Mircea Suciu
Mircea Suciu (b. 1978) confronts recent histories in a subjective way, as a continuum of socio-political and psychological themes. His works propose iconic, strong, dramatic images, decomposed and later restored images, through his own technique, using photography as the first frame of the image and, finally, painting as a way to systematize it emotionally. In the “The Light of Recent Events”, Mircea doubles the personal filter of reading/mirroring the world and exposes himself as a performer under an exhausting light, which brings to the surface a process of cleansing and abandonment.
