Contemporary sculpture "Meeting in Space"


Tudor Bridge, Republic of Moldova.

2004. Wood, stoneware, metal.

Ungheni Museum of History and Ethnography.

In the author's language, space is not just physical, but existential: the place where tradition and modernity, solidity and precariousness, touch without fully merging.

The wood from which the work is made refers to tradition, memory, roots – but also to fragility. The open / suspended form of the elements indicates a “meeting” that is not peaceful, but tense – between people, ideas, eras or spaces. Verticality in this case is aspiration, but without the certainty of final stability.
