LUCIA Macari

When I was a kid my mum went out for a handful of soil. She intended to pot a flower, but some other home troubles made her to forget about it. In about a week, maybe more, a small green shoot appear on my room out of the forgotten pot. In a month a tomato plant grew out – strong and beautiful.

In my work I employ and synthesize various media of visual arts (performance, installation, video, etc.), music and literature, searching for my way of combining and intermixing in parallel characteristics of investigated phenomena, in order to experiment with the emotional and physical involvement of the artist in his work.
Since circumstances made me to leave my native country of Moldova Republic, the main topic I explore in my creation became my personal identity. Romantic point of view plus interest for extreme facts and episodes of contemporary being are basis of my method.
Mainly my projects consist of records cut on X-Rays pictures of my body parts (fractured bones, organs, etc). Most of them look almost similar, but the sound on them, depending on project, is different. In this way those records are sometimes audio documents of my projects, but sometimes are the artworks themselves.
