artistic practice

Performance @Thespis Student Theatre

Beyond engineering and cultural facilitation, my artistic work is rooted in performance, visual installation, and long-term collaborative creation. My practice moves between acting, directing, and conceptual involvement, often engaging with themes like memory, identity, and the unseen infrastructures of civic life.

Theatre // Performance // Visual & Conceptual Installations

Thespis Student Theatre (2007–present)

Actor, director, and trainer within one of Romania’s longest-running independent student theatres. I have performed in and directed over 20 productions, working in ensemble-based, devised, and site-responsive formats. See roles & archive

Mentalese (2023), a hybrid installation-performance presented at Park Gallery in collaboration with visual artist Ciprian Chirileanu was the 1st visual art exposition

The work delves into the pre-verbal language of thought, translating internal mental architectures into tangible, sensory environments. Through a network of sculptural elements—recovered objects, rods, and symbolic arrangements—the installation invites viewers to navigate the invisible pathways of cognition. Blending minimalist aesthetics with conceptual precision, the piece bridges art, engineering, and the subconscious, offering a spatial reflection on how thought, memory, and perception intersect. (dedicated article in ARTA)

FROM NOWHERE / DE NICIUNDE

Founded together with Ciprian Chirileanu, Ioan Rusan, and Mihai Toth, De Niciunde / From Nowhere is an interdisciplinary group working at the intersection of art, science, perception, and material inquiry.

Our first exhibition, Unde de Niciunde (2024), presented at Pasmatex, brought together collaborative art-science installations that investigated how abstract phenomena—such as waves, energy, resonance, and invisible forces—can be made perceptible through sensory experience. The project opened a poetic dialogue between art and science, transforming an industrial space into a laboratory of perception. Focusing on frequency, form, and vibration, the exhibition dissolved the boundary between rational structure and artistic intuition.

That Then / Acel Atunci (2025) continues the line of inquiry opened by Unde de Niciunde, shifting the focus toward the invisible contributions that sustain knowledge, invention, and everyday life. Combining installation, performance, and archival thinking, the project recovers fragile gestures, anonymous labour, and overlooked forms of participation, turning them into the substance of a living archive. Rather than offering a closed narrative, the work remains open to intervention, where memory is activated, negotiated, and rewritten through the presence of its audience.

Selected coverage

Unde de Niciunde was featured in PropagArta in Miruna Robescu’s article “Enigma interacțiunii dintre artă și știință”, which frames the exhibition as a meeting point between art and engineering and discusses works by the participating artists and engineers, including my installations.

The group’s later trajectory was further contextualised in Kontur Magazine through Toth Yvett-Beatrix’s essay “The Era of Free Information and Censored Minds”, which reflects on New Tab, notes that Grupul de niciunde was formed in connection with Unde de niciunde and New Tab, and includes a reading of my installation Progresul undelor
