21st Century Alina Radu Solo Exhibition in Berlin

Alina Radu is a Romanian artist who lives and works in Berlin. She was born in Timisoara, Romania in times of revolution against the communist regime.

Radu’s love for sculpting started in her early childhood when she was modeling plasticine. During university, she improved her working techniques in other materials such as stone, iron, resin - but wood became her favorite. Attracted by natural textures, she developed her own working technique using elements found in nature, creating the desired shapes and preserving all in resin layers.

“21st Century” is a representation of what humanity has become today and how all this impacts and debilitates nature. It is depicted by insects, highlighting some of the main problems we face at the beginning of the 3rd millennium.

This exhibition consists of a series of 14 works, combining her passion for sculpture with her love for nature. The exhibited works were created in Berlin, where the artist sourced various natural elements found in the forests surrounding the city. Radu is expressing actual problems that we confront. The ones that may lead us to extermination probably - as individuals and as a species. Her sculptures combine the biggest societal problems through the faces of the voiceless.
