Description
Roman Tolici is a contemporary artist whose photographic realist works are pierced by humour, irony, reflection and hope. His classical training in visual arts in the Republic of Moldova influenced his creation. The poetic, sometimes ambiguous paintings by Tolici capture mundane moments of life, moods and memories. He creates them in a variety of scales, sometimes repeating an image within the surface of a canvas, which reinforces its reflective, time-quality. In spite of their seductive and dreamy coating, the underlying psychological implications and straightforwardness constitute a challenge that lingers with the viewer.
