www.monica-tiulescu.com Monica is a Connecticut-based New York City-raised artist and educator. She has taught architecture design, art, and digital media since 2000, both at the high school and college levels. I draw on painted fields. My work fluctuates between disfiguration and figuration between layered fields and familiar beings. The picture plane is amassed to create spatial amplification for the figures to oscillate throughout the composition. The work is inspired by graffiti and urban street art culture. The dark contour is critical to linking the figures as a continuous text. The figures are positioned between realism and illustration. This is especially evident in the portraits. The bodies disfigure into lines and anchor the portraits into the painted field.
