<strong>Oana Tudose </strong>(b. 1987, Romania) graduated Piet Zwart Institute interior architecture and retail design master’s degree and has worked independently at the intersection of space, design, and visual art since 2014. Her works explore different mediums such as textiles, painting, drawing, and poetry while researching themes of mysticism, mythology, and identity.

Her current textile paintings stem from ongoing research of the place where she grew up: Gorj region of Romania. By using a discarded biodegradable material, she creates images and personifications of her childhood forest as they existed in her memory but also in the local archaic rituals and mythological characters. The childhood forest becomes a sacred place where memory and imagination could co-exist.
