Alina Moise
Photographer / Architect

Graduated in 2019 from the Ion Mincu University of Architecture and Urbanism, I am currently living and working in Bucharest, Romania, as an architect while I develop my passion for photography. When I design I imagine I am a photographer in my project and I want to take great pictures, with good composition, interesting colors, contrast, sunlight, to capture the feeling of the space. ‘Architecture as Art. Finding the principles of objective beauty in architecture’ was one of my research topics, being more interested in the artistic side and the psycho-social influence of architecture over humans.

I enjoy discovering new places and cultures and I am interested in photography, cinematography, and art – tools through which I discover aesthetic principles, the world’s entropy, and social behavior. My themes and subjects are mostly focused on the anthropic environment and how the design shapes the space and the human behavior around it. Through this pandemic year, I couldn’t travel anymore so I turned to more personal documentary photography. 

‘Grandma’s House’, a photo that was taken in Bacău, during the lockdown is included in the Global Images for Global Crisis physical exhibition at the ICP / International Center of Photography in New York, curated by David Company. Several other images have been featured on Instagram by pages as Calvert Journal, Euronews Travel, and ICP, among others.

I am now struggling to exhibit my photographic pandemic journal and to publish a photographic zine about it. Looking forward to applying for a master in photography abroad.

  • Karla Hiraldo Voleau: Another Love Story

    A year. That’s how long it’s been since Karla Hiraldo Voleau’s exhibition Another Love Story first opened at the MEP in Paris in 2022. A year is also the timeframe of the story chronicled in that project – a love story personal to KHV, which shifts abruptly from its climax to its end when she discovers that X, her lover, is leading a double life – a revelation that prompts the artist to question her certainties.

  • John Bock: PARA-SCHIZO, ensnarled
    Oct 26 – Dec 13, 2023
    Anton Kern Gallery
    New York, USA
    After a five-year hiatus, German artist John Bock is returning to New York to inaugurate his eleventh exhibition at Anton Kern Gallery with a “lecture” (performance) on the night of the opening. Bock’s universe is a bold, even daring synthesis of different genres including sculpture, performance, and film. In it, material objects, language, and the human body are given equal value; their interactions are powered by the logic of the collage principle, the combination of disparate entities to create a new thing.

  • 1 a 1 Affinità
    Nov 22, 2023 – Feb 29, 2024
    ON House Milano
    Milan, Italy
    1 a 1 Affinità is a group show celebrating the relationship between different artistic expressions and their surrounding context. The exhibition takes place at ON House Milano: a charming location in the heart of Milano, which used to be the Azucena workshop of Architect Caccia Dominioni. The combination of space, artwork, and the artworks between them invites the audience to discover, through research and observation, that “spark” of affinity generated by perception. The path follows the thin line that defines different artistic languages, such as figurative art and abstract art, but also performance, photography, NFT, happening, video and installation. And everything with the utmost respect to the historical heritage and design purpose of the house. This was, in fact, the toughest challenge for the curators Anna Kessler and Anna Niutta. They looked for the harmony within different poetics, and created a unique and unexpected domestic experience. An experience deeply related to the visible. Starting from the “Sleeping Girl” (yes, she will be actually sleeping in the bedroom of the house), the exhibition reveals a path through memories and people, mysteries and objects and colors and hopes. And in fact, isn’t the bed the one, true realm of imagery and imagination, dreams and visualizations? Every night, as we lay our day down, we practice the art of letting go. We leave our conscious thoughts, our rational mind behind, and we agree to see, and be seen  –  we accept to yield control. And as we do that, we gift ourselves to the domain of imagery  –  key and vehicle to those intimate, submerged places and spaces. At night, it is instinct and imagery that guide our experience. Research on the visible is a challenge to observation directed to the observer. There certainly is a real world that we know, but how much of this real world is exhausted in our sensory experience? Through the dialogue between works, the observer discovers similarities between different languages that ultimately prove to be distant only in appearance. Different artistic means manage to generate, through perception, a living impression in continuous dialogue with the observer. The common features, or affinities, between the different forms of expression appear very clear at times: the figurative often finds itself drawing from elements that are not properly its own, and the non-figurative struggles to disregard sensory reality that is also perhaps only an illusion. To what degree is our sensory perception conditioned by our inner state and to what extent is it – instead – influenced by our surroundings? The show will be featuring the following artists: Michele Dal Bosco, Louise Daniel, Giovanni De Benedetto, Laura Grinberga, Alessandro Grimoldieu, Rosanna Iob, Rebecca Loro, Guenda Nocentini, Carolina Pozzi, Maddalena Tesser, Maria Giovanna Zanella. With the precious contribution of Annalisa Iob. Everything was made possible by the vision of Fabio Tacchinardi.
