Artist Statement

ANCA-SONIA’s pictorial signature on his works is a path of light. ANCA-SONIA, artist and teacher, invites us to a meeting with ourselves. With her monumental canvases, she accompanies the visitor “up” … I was going to write the spectator because it is indeed to the theater that the artist invites us with a masterfully living work; a scene where she chooses her roles by theme, adapting herself, getting involved to the depths of her creations with a grace, a power, and always this axis of reflection which runs through the whole of her unique work: Balance.

Everything is balance. And since she is an artist beyond canvases, she composes a universe tinged with aestheticism, romantic poetry, here she is soberly uttering a “The diapason” … Her work is a symphony, and what do the mines matter? serious or interrogative of animals or painted and sculpted beings, since ultimately it is life, light that must triumph over everything… To meditated on.
