Artwork location: Romania

This evocative artwork captivates with its muted color palette and abstract forms. Dominated by cool grays and blues, the composition centers on two figures, depicted with their backs turned, hands clasped, creating a sense of introspection and solitude. The artist utilizes broad, textured brushstrokes, softening the figures and integrating them into the backdrop of vertical panels. This technique blurs the boundaries between foreground and background, enhancing a dreamlike quality. The subtle interplay of light and shadow on the figures adds depth and dimension, evoking a sense of movement and fluidity. The panels, reminiscent of a window or a barrier, suggest themes of confinement or observation. The artwork's abstract nature leaves interpretation open, inviting the viewer to reflect on themes of isolation, connection, and the passage of time. Its understated elegance and ambiguity make it a compelling piece that resonates emotionally and visually.

Oana Maria Pop, Gaze I
Romania  • 1989

Presentation

Born 1989 in Cluj-Napoca, Romania

Oana Maria Pop (b. 1989) is a Romanian mixed media artist working with oil and acrylic on canvas, industrial silicone and photography. Her practice entails depictions of the neighbourhoods she grew up in and other environs that made an impression on her. The protagonist within the spaces she documents is the human form and its marks left by particular extrinsic experiences. In the past few years, Oana's work centred around the study of the representation of women in arts and society and the criticism of upholding rape myths, domestic violence and other forms of abuse against women and young girls.

She is a PhD candidate at the University of Fine Arts and Design, Cluj-Napoca, and is represented by IAGA Contemporary Art gallery.

For her BA and MA degrees, she investigated the subject of R.E.M. dreaming as a commentary for the 80s and 90s generations in contemporary Romania and on Romanian consumerism depicted through a visual metaphor of the act of eating. She was awarded an Erasmus scholarship in Italy at the Accademia di Belle Arti di Venezia and in Berlin at Tanya Leighton Gallery.

Presently, she is undertaking an artistic residency in Berlin granted by Urban Nation Museum and Stiftung Berliner Leben, exploring media linguistics and analysing the written use of language in the press reports of domestic violence and femicide.
