Artist Statement
My name is Florin Dragoi, born in 1985 and currently based in Timisoara, Romania. I am a contemporary artist specializing in figurative graphite drawings on paper. My work features intricately detailed characters often depicted wearing masks, set within natural environments, in the style of magical realism.
Through my art, I explore the future tribes and identities of humankind, imagining them through the dual perspectives of technological evolution, transhumanism, and spiritual growth on one hand, and our primal, intuitive nature, mythology, symbolism, magic, folklore, paganism and mysticism on the other. The intersection of these perspectives offers a rich and intriguing field for artistic exploration.
