TRAIAN
CHERECHES

Traian Cherecheș is a visual artist living and working between Bucha- rest and Paris. By examining the limits between natural exploration and extraction, his investigation into the current age of extinction surfaces out powerful, symbolic approaches to the body, volcano, and ritual. His work emerges from an interdisciplinary process using drawing, painting, sculpture, and sound to translate concerns about the multiple transfor- mations in today’s world. In 2019 he participated in the 64th edition of Salon de Montrouge, Paris. His tracks and experimental soundscapes have been released on labels such as Archipel, Fabric Records Lon- don, and Cocoon Recordings. Together with Sacha Khalifé they form the abstract electronic sound and music project titled Midnight. Recent exhibitions include “Gesturing towards solitude” and “Out of the Blue” at MARe (Museum of Recent Art), Bucharest and Art Encounters 2021 - Contemporary Art Biennial, Our Other Us - Landscape in a Convex Mirror, curated by Mihnea Mircan, collective exhibition, Timisoara, Romania.
