Additional info:
Victoria Zidaru is a visual artist who works with painting, sculpture, graphic techniques, and embroidery. Often associated with neo-Orthodox Christian art, her works have been said to invoke a deep sense of spirituality and mysticism, with an emblematic style that manages to construct a complex sensorial universe. Her embroideries, such as the one in the mixed media sculpture Serafim (2010), often feature mediaeval symbols associated with angelic figures, life and death, hope and suffering. These are skillfully crafted following old domestic techniques, confronting the modern viewer with recontextualized religious motifs. Zidaru’s works have been featured in numerous exhibitions, in countries such as Romania, Germany, Spain, Italy, and the United States.
