Fractal Topologies of the Infinite

Constantin Flondor in Dialogue with Mirel Vieru

Structured as a space that privileges new perspectives of understanding, the exhibition maps the recurring fractal topologies found in both artists’ works, revealing the continuous process of transformation within the relationship between idea and form, in pictorial compositions that resonate with universal meanings.

In the works of master Constantin Flondor, nature itself becomes a fractal unfolding - a ceaseless evolution through infinite expansion toward new realms of knowledge. Building a bridge between immediate reality and the boundless universe, the fractal topologies in his paintings are abstract reflections of a creative process rooted in his long-standing observations and research into the mathematical rules and principles governing growth in nature.

The body of works selected for this exhibition reflects the artist’s enduring curiosity to contemplate nature, to work in and with nature itself - an effort toward a deep understanding of the implicit and explicit orders that reconstruct the plenitude of the world through the unfolding and enfolding of new meanings.

A similar approach can be found in the recent works of the younger artist Mirel Vieru. His imaginary landscapes, in continuous evolution, capture the depth and infinite complexity of fractals, producing images that evoke both cosmic vastness and microscopic detail.

The series of works presented in this exhibition combines visual fragments - cut and recomposed from earlier paintings - meant to question the concept of a “geometry of the incomplete.” Each composition emerges from an extensive process of recomposition, revealing an unstable geometry made up of cut-out and recontextualized fragments, where time and space overlap and meaning multiplies. Rather than aiming to restore a lost whole, the artist proposes the (re)construction of a new visual order, one grounded in the very tension between rupture and continuity.
