Sergiu Ciochină (born2001) is a painter from Moldova who now lives in Paris. He recently embarked on a journey through northern France, Paris, Portugal, Madeira, and Morocco.
Ciochină is fascinated by the interplay of light and texture. He captures the sun in narrow streets, or casts dramatic shadows of trees onto buildings and paths. Employing an impasto technique featuring energetic, visible brushstrokes, he highlights the unique textures and patterns of each
place.
“The places, people, colors, rays of sunshine, and the shadows they cast—these are what inspire me during my travels,” he says.
