Daniel Brici is an emerging young artist, born in 1987, living and working in Resita, Romania. He had been exhibited in shows in Romania, Holland, Italy, Switzerland and Denmark. In 2012 he was nominated at V Premio Internacional De Artes Plasticas Fundacion Maria Jose Jove Bienal, A Coruna, Spain. He is featured in Snapshot Romania, Contemporary Artists from Romania, Imago Mundi – Luciano Benetton Collection, 2013. In 2014, his artworks were exhibited by Nasui Collection & Gallery in Bucharest, Zurich and Copenhagen.

The artist Brici is interested in the Romanian suburban life, spiced up with mixed realities which characterized it. Living and working in Resita, a Romanian postindustrial city, Brici’s art is very much influenced by people who struggle with everyday life matters, among who he actually lives. The social component is harsh and tense, most of the people are neglected by the society and thus become ”invisible”. Therefore, through his artworks, Brici is giving them if not a voice, at least a face; he also usually names his artworks by real people’s names. In this process of revealing different types of reality, somebody or something which was invisible becomes visible. In this way, the ”invisible” people can now be known and seen through the artworks, even if in real life some of them do not have an ID.

Starting with 2009, Brici dedicates most of his artworks to the ”invisible children”, from the countryside, from the suburbs, living among them and aiming to get a proper attention for them.

Using a hyperrealist technique, with meticulous details, Brici’s art can be described as using the effect of ”un-finishing”. The visual characteristic of Brici’s artworks is the extreme alternation from heavily described textures and close-ups to thin, almost electric, basic sketch lines on white or dark backgrounds.

Other Info: 

The name of the exhibition, ”Invisible Children”, is inspired by the UNICEF Romania’s campaign with homonym name, having the goal of making children visible by helping them, among others, to get a birth certificate (a date for celebrating their birthday), a subscription to a family doctor, and thus giving them the equal chance of integration within society.
