Andreea Pîslaru
Andreea Pîslaru is a Romanian multi-disciplinary artist based in Nottingham, whose practice exists in between art making and anatomical replication research at NTU School of Art and Design.
Andreea’s work investigates forms of embodiment, the grotesque, and its cultural associations with the sexual saturation of the feminine by deconstructing the body as a means of transgression. She is interested in the spectacle of bodies in intense physical and emotional states, voyeuristic pleasure, fetishism, and the manipulation of aesthetic distance in relation to the abject. By shifting conventional parameters of the materiality of existence, she aims to translate non-physical bodily experiences into tangible forms. Andreea sculpts new, reformulated, fluid identities through sculpture and performance.
