Ilie Boca’s painting carries the mystery of its birth. Not especially the signs, the simbols used, but the miracle that is carring on the facet, is sending us beyound the colour palette, the soloist element of his painting, by graphic sign, by the simbol that we’ll identify.

Is a world created by fragments, an univers built on elements’s level and her coherence is carring out off its. Boca’s World represents our world, looked in different times, a past-present mixt, thinked every time like a start. The liberty of gesture doesn’t let place to the inside fussiness, drudgery hours, in a devour way, such as our painter is consuming the daily exercise.
