Ioana Lupascu

artistiek onderzoek - schrijven - autobiografisch - community - DIY

Artist and designer interested in the poetics of space, graphic form and practices of togetherness. Ioana's work strongly focuses on play, process, and making, which leads to (co)producing: sound pieces, audio, texts, art installations, publications walks, movement sessions, and workshops. They have a background in architecture and critical theory where moderation and facilitation play a key role. Ioana currently explores the topic of intimacy, residue, ecology and fragmentation.

    • On 22nd October 2023, we transformed the parking lot of a local cafe in Wortel into a gathering space for locals and passersby. The scene featured two large-scale printed canvases, one depicting a Bucovina landscape and the other an image from the village. Guest Andreea Handragel led singing connecting with her heritage while a spontaneous hora dance ensued, blending awkwardness with warmth. The event is the result of a residency done by the artists a month prior.

    • How to: reward and punish, was a three-week (online) residency; and the last of a series of annual residencies organized by CCA in Montreal. Selected through an open call, ten architectural thinkers with complementary practices were brought together to better understand the role architectural awards play in the industry at large. We co-produce a soft tactical guide that can facilitate a re-reading of the awarding practice through play, mantras, actions and public tactics.
