Roads Through the Forest consists of an immersive installation with drawings and collages of fantastic characters from the Pine Forest, which is a key concept of the artist's universe.
In this installation, the Urseni UFO Building borrows the symbolic connotations of the Pine Forest and becomes an ambivalent space, both physical and allegorical, in which fantastic, semi-abstract characters make their appearance and which viewers are invited to encounter.
At the
opening of the exhibition, at 7 PM, the public will be invited to participate in a collective performance action /Let's make them talk!/ in which each person is will be able to interact with the space and the characters as guided by the artist.
Opening: 21 November, 18:30
