Cut stars
This imposing wooden sculpture is inspired by a return to pure materiality. The two star-shaped forms, designed as columns with geometric surfaces resting on the ground, evoke the essence of Constantin Brâncuși’s work and traditional Romanian vernacular architecture.

Dan Vișovan
Dan Vișovan (b. 1988, Baia Mare) is an artist whose work explores themes of closures and openings, with the resulting visual forms emerging as logical consequences of the relationship between exterior and interior. His pieces are characterized by geometric and modular elements, often conceived as meshes and metal weavings. Textures play a crucial role in the interaction between knowledge and perception, with their engagement with light being a significant aspect of his artistic practice. By extension, Vișovan’s works can be seen as incorporating elements of Op Art.
