Bianca Mierlea
London, United Kingdom
Chelsea College MAFA student Bianca Mierlea is a Romanian artist based in London. Through her works she explores different esoteric concepts such as out of body experiences, the existence of parallel universes, spirituality, but also concepts of femininity and the power of the self. In her works she plays with different aspects such as: real-unreal, solid-non solid, human versus hybrid being. Through her paintings, ceramics and textile works she shows the power of the transformative energy, the journey of the self/higher self and the contrasts between reality and dream. Her working process is based on a contrast between instinct versus rational, memory and fluidity that blends with the materiality and multiple textures that she uses.
With each work Bianca aims to create a new universe and to break the boundaries between the physical self and the spiritual one in order to connect them. She is also inspired by the human body, especially by the women forms and how these connect with the true self and the hybrid beings that she creates with her art.
