ABOUT ANDREEA BADEA:

Andreea Badea graduated from the University of Arts in Bucharest, photo-video department. Her projects are most often based on the relationship between nature, object and man – made in close connection with the theme of ritual and personal space.

In the series made for EPRETEXT, Andreea continues the research regarding the relationship between private space and ritual. This time the set-design is a semi-utopian one, most of the situations being photographed in artificial light, so they acquire a strange, mystical aura. Taken as a whole, they present themselves as a cabinet of curiosities, or as a capsule where space and time are difficult to decipher. In this series, nature intervenes in the intimate space, it lives next to man and survives with him. Last but not least, the series is an anomaly, where familiarity is dissolved by rituals adapted to a new life.
