Alex Voinea

Alex Voinea was born
in Romania in 1973. Leaving Romania after the revolution, he moved to Italy. He
now resides in Sitges, Barcelona. His work has been shown in various
international art hot spots, including Brussels, Paris, London, Milan,
Amsterdam, New York, and Los Angeles.

Fading backgrounds
create depth and perspective in his abstract works. Voinea transmits vibrancy
and motion through drippings and large sweeping brushstrokes that include
various saturated and fluorescent colors that bring movement and fluidity to
his paintings. Moments of tension and sublime relief characterize paintings that
evoke a thousandth of a second. These undulating strokes slither among one
another and vibrate against geometric planes of color.

Inspired by experiments with
paint poured over vibrating surfaces such as speakers at full volume, Voinea
collaborates with chance to evoke the energy of the moment. Projections of
paint, splashes of pure material, and streams of color in space are whiplash
expressions of the temporary. Voinea captures and freezes, in an instant, an
imaginary and expressive big bang of color.
