Through my current textile paintings series entitled `Fragments of a forest` I look at my childhood forest as a sacred place where memory and imagination could co-exist.

Oana Tudose (b. 1987, Romania) is a multidisciplinary artist and designer who graduated Piet Zwart institute in 2014. Drawing inspiration from the diverse ecosystems of nature, her personal memories, and ancient mythologies, she forms vibrant visual narratives where imagination and memory could co-exist. Her practice often begins with drawing and leads to textile manipulations weaved with poetry and found objects.
Textiles, once a medium of artistic expression in her childhood home, serve as the inspiration for her current artistic focus. In these recent works, she investigates the transcendence of loss and fragility of memory, creating personal mythologies that extend beyond time and space. The forest of her childhood becomes the sacred space where she investigates the cyclical nature of death and rebirth. The journey into atemporality and spatiality through textiles becomes an exploration of the enduring cycles of life.
