instalations

This collection includes various installations made in the past years, where each one is created using eco-friendly materials.

"Liviu Bulea can be considered “a social practice installation artist”. He recovers seemingly useless material fragments that come from precise contexts. The hospital’s wall where he was treated when he was an adolescent, the city’s sidewalk where he had grown up, and pieces of concrete from a mall that was built over a community.

His staging mechanism is very deep and requires further research. The concrete dust covering his hometown is transformed into a painting or sculpture that recalls the trauma of a community deeply affected by post-revolutionary changes in Romania. In Turda, when it rained, the vegetables turned into concrete because of the cement dust expelled into the atmosphere by the nearby factory. Bulea depicts the traumatic process as an emotion-making installation that creates unusual attention to some social processes lost in selective memory." - Răzvan Ion, curator
