All-defining concrete and an out of context camera

In this exhibition, his photos are hung alongside the work of the Romanian artist Liviu Bulea, who captures his birthplace Turda (in the Transylvania region in Romania) in a remarkable way. Bulea: “My weapon for change is art. I can be considered ‘a social practise installation artist’. I recover seemingly useless material fragments that come from precise contexts. The hospital’s wall where I was treated when I had cancer, the city’s sidewalk where I had grown up, and pieces of concrete from a mall that was built over a community. My staging mechanism is very deep and requires further research. The concrete dust covering my 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 in the atmosphere by the nearby factory.”
