Description

Toma Roata (b. 1941) is a Romanian painter, active since the 1960s.

His paintings often blend folk or religious motifs with a tendency towards abstract defamiliarization through which the artist subjectively tests the (im)possibilities of the real. The layered play of light and darkness, as well as the explorations of shape in the painting Elément pour une cathédrale possible provoke reflections on creation and deconstruction as processes that pertain to an immanent order of existence. Immaterial spectres are made concrete by diffusion and vagueness, transpiring in the artist’s denaturalised object.

Roata’s paintings are part of private collections alongside public ones such as that of the National Museum of Contemporary Art Bucharest.
