Exhibition by Ionut Stefan
A journey through the regular commute of a person, through printed graphics and a small sculpture installation. The exhibition will convey how our common experiences make us relate to one another through our shared experiences, what it means to travel, and what it means to be in the same boat together. All artwork will be exhibited in the studio.
