Teodora Axente
Teodora Axente (born 1984, Sibiu) lives and works in Cluj-Napoca, Romania, where she received an MFA and Ph.D. at the University of Art And Design. Using a distinct dark palette, she addresses the themes of passing, transience, and refusal by imbuing the staged appearance of her figures with an elusive sense of beauty.
