PROFESSOR

Over the course of many years, I served as a faculty member at the National University of Arts in Bucharest, where I taught drawing, color, and composition. Most of my teaching activity took place within the Photo-Video Department, although in the early years of my career I also taught in the Painting, Design, and Decorative Arts Departments.

This experience was both intense and profoundly formative, not only for the students but also for myself. The daily dialogue with successive generations of young artists offered me the opportunity to constantly rediscover the meanings of drawing, observation, and imagination as essential tools of visual thinking.

Throughout these years, my pedagogical work ran in parallel with my own artistic projects, a period during which I created some of my most significant bodies of work. The learning process was reciprocal: what I shared in the studio would return to me as a new creative impulse.

From the very beginning, I had the inspiration to document my entire teaching activity, a practice that became a valuable working instrument and an integral part of my personal teaching method. The images and sequences recorded over the years reflect this dual perspective — as teacher and artist, witness and participant in the process of formation through art.
