His compositions are an original approach to interpretation of nature
using simple terms: water, light, food, and energy. Ranging in style
from surrealism to realism, the artist has built a distilled vision of reality
where nature’s lights and life’s perennial mystery compose a personal
symbolism that speaks through elaborated colors and pictorial
forms. Ovidiu Lebejoara forgoes the distraction of superfluous and
melodramatic abstraction in favor of a cohesive portrait that gives the
viewer rest from turbulent and noisy world. His strong, well-conceived
and esthetically challenging paintings reveal professional attributes
in style, technique and concept. Both his older work and his current
ongoing series of paintings show a distinctive style and content that
he developed a personally, expressive signature. providing a way for
exhibitors and collectors to identify his work.
“I like the simple. I do not like the simplicity”, the artist confesses. ‘‘I
always asked the eternal questions: Who are we? Where do we come
from? Where are we going? Why do we live? With each and every
work I made and I have always thought that only nature or God can
answer our uncertainties”.
