Ruxandra Cristina Bocin-Dumitriu immerses her spectators into the calm and soothing depths of the inner world. In her intervention on photography body of work, serene landscapes are the place of encounter between the inner and the outer world. Reality is the first layer, and with it, emotions, memories, ideas and intuition come to life inside, completing and transcending the moment.
The two worlds flow seamlessly into each other, at times they break apart and are mended together again, referencing the ancient Chinese technique “kintsugi”: the gold line of a portrait gently kissing the two worlds into one.
Born in Bucharest [RO], Ruxandra is currently living and working in Amsterdam [NL].
