Mioara is a Romanian-French artist. She grew up during the communist era of Romania, but after the Revolution she left her country and lived in many other places as Italy, Greece, Switzerland, India and the Emirates before she settled again in France. Her paintings are deeply autobiographical, a poetical result of her intimate experience of self-discovering, a language who eventually could release her soul by expressing itself. She endeavors to give a phisical form to the immaterial, to that fragile states of mind like the melancholia, the longing, the silence, the absence. She experiments with textures to bring more substance, which connect her to the sensual, to the earth, to the material and visible.

L'amour toujours
BLUE MY MIND
The Persistence of Memory
eCRITURE BLEUE

Fascinated by the art of Mehendi in India—the ritual of henna tattoos, also deeply rooted in Arabic culture—she transposes its essence into her work, finding a response to her quest for peace of mind. The intricate repetition of patterns becomes a mantra, an open door to meditation, symbolism, and poetic imagination.

Gold and silver are her most powerful psychological colors, while blue is the one she craves—the color of longing, of distance and silence, the hue of something forever out of reach, untouchable yet deeply felt.

To crystallize a feeling—that is her art. “Because art is the name we give to our feelings made public.” as she likes to paraphrase Iain Thomas.
