About the Item

Reflex 3, 2007 Oil on canvas (Signed on reverse) 17.71 H x 23.62 W in 45 H x 60 W cm The artist Ana Maria Micu wrote about her works: "There is certain culpability in self-representation, related to the sin of Narcissus, to self-sufficiency and false recognition: the mirror image is not an identical Self. For me, the self-portrait is an obsessive theme and, from a certain moment in time, I began to consider it as a chaotic method to learn through failure. If observation induces knowledge, we might admit that a self-orientated analysis is, from a logical point of view, the most achievable and lucrative observation possible. If we agree that true understanding is possible, nothing could seem more natural as the fact that the first thing we should understand best is ourselves. At the same time, although it starts with the perfect premises, this type of enterprise is, from the beginning, meant to fail, because it lacks the objective detachment required in the final analysis. Thus, you have to accept that, by yourself, it is impossible to learn who you really are, but, most definitely, you are the right person to gather all the information that could help this conclusion to be deduced. Because of this, I constructed this project as an unfinished syllogism; a structure of premises, which, I admit, I cannot conclude."
