For Florin Ciubotaru the picturality means a permanent challenge of rules, which its build the all languages, in reference with freadom who becomes fascinating only when it shows in spirit of a discipline. In context of his creation, this thing seeams to be the rule of “gold”, which, every year, it’s carring to him a lot of satisfactions. This is how we explain the play between chromatic and geometry, between different techniques, the synthesis, which in last period preferes the suggestion more and more; the purge of facet and the focusing on details zone, which incites always through location, between real and fantastic.
