Diana Elena Chelaru
Beyond This World, Original Painting

2023

About the Item

Artist Comments
Dynamic shapes and colors carry a profound symbolism. A woman's silhouette lies among the stars, representing humanity's connection to the cosmos. The artwork encourages the viewer to contemplate their place in the universe and ponder the mysteries around them.


About the Artist
Artist Diana Chelaru paints colorful expressionist interpretations of human emotion. “Art is a means of communication, it is how I express my thoughts, hopes, regrets, and joys,” says Diana. She experiments with working on large-scale paintings using the visual language of form, lines, and color to create compositions that exist only in her imagination. Growing up in Romania, she draws inspiration from Byzantine mosaics as well as Gustav Klimt’s subject matter and use of decorative patterns. She received her BFA in Painting from George Enescu Art University and finished her MA in Art History from Queens College. Diana simply goes with the flow rather than dwelling on the formulaic process. It all depends on how and what she feels at the moment. She indulges in music while she creates her work.
