Chimera
A symbol of the times we are living in, the chimera is not just an unattainable fantasy, but also a representation of the transformations we are undergoing. It was conceived for the Romanian Bestiary in Paris, where the artists participated. It is a monster composed of various animal parts, and its head—traditionally that of a lion—is replaced by a mirror. This invites not only contemplation but also direct interaction with the viewer. The chimera is us, wandering among ideologies, beliefs, and conspiracies.
