SMALL DETAILS, NOT IMPORTANT

2023

explores violence and discrimination against women in Romania through paintings and photographs. The works are based on four real-life cases of abuse within public institutions, including police inaction on domestic violence, the mistreatment of a young woman during an abortion, the judicial mishandling of a child rape case, and a teacher's sexual abuse of students. The paintings abstract the female body, symbolizing how women are objectified and dehumanized by a corrupt and sexist society. 

A recurrent line, a leitmotif throughout the artworks, mirrors the lines often found on the walls of public institutions, evoking the oppressive spaces where these abuses occur. This line serves as a symbolic reminder of the institutional complicity in gender violence. 

The imagery serves as a metaphor for the way women are often seen as flesh, reduced and exploited.
