OVOGRAFIE

With Mariana Andone Rotaru

Curated by Ana Daniela Sultana

The practice of egg painting, widespread throughout Romania, functions as a form of ritual writing. It is within this symbolic and technical context that Mariana Andone Rotaru’s exhibition is situated, reinterpreting the tradition of egg painting through a contemporary practice centered on the ostrich egg. The concept of the exhibition “OVOGRAPHY” explores the egg as a unit of measurement of genesis and as an object that contains within itself the entire universe, protected by a shell upon which the artist places, with wax and precision, maps of our collective memory.

The exhibition is part of a defining direction within CREART Gallery’s curatorial program, which brings together, around Easter time, contemporary art projects inspired by the holiday. In previous years, this initiative included the Grivița 53 project “Egg by Egg and Brick by Brick” (2023), “Resurrection” solo exhibition by Eugen Raportoru (2024), and “CTRL + S(oul)” solo exhibition by Sabina Legănaru (2025). This year, during the Holy Week, CREART Gallery presents “OVOGRAFIE”, a solo by visual artist Mariana Andone Rotaru.
