This series of paintings transforms vintage carpets into unconventional canvases, juxtaposing the intricate, ornate patterns of traditional textiles with bold and evocative contemporary imagery. The artworks explore themes of nostalgia, identity, and cultural critique, using the familiar texture and symbolism of the carpets as a grounding element. With layered brushstrokes and a striking interplay of colors, each piece balances the delicate intricacy of the woven background with the bold, modern visuals painted on them.

The contrast between the vintage carpets and the vivid, often playful painted elements—such as iconic Romanian motifs, familiar products, and reflective text—offers a commentary on the intersection of tradition and modernity. The use of carpets as a base not only nods to a shared cultural memory but also redefines their purpose, elevating them to artifacts of storytelling. This series invites viewers to reflect on the layers of meaning within objects we often overlook, sparking dialogue about what it means to blend the past and present into a cohesive narrative.
