Statement

Anamaria Avram - self-expression

My work concentrates on themes related to human existence: material and spiritual change, perception of time, life and death, origin and birth, introspection, femininity and history, tradition, faith and modernity.
Reflecting the unconscious, the works aim to transform the familiar image of order, dimension, space or time into iconographic images, into mystical "created realities".
In the magical realistic portraits, still lifes, interiors, scenes or landscapes, created in an Old Masters style, I play with quotations, signs and symbols and I interpret them in a contemporary way alongside surrealistic elements.
The conceptual side of my projects is important, so I like to bring together different mediums: painting, mixed media, installation and video.
