Alina Poloboc | Maldova-USA
Alina Poloboc is a contemporary artist born in Bender, Transnistria, an independent country within Moldova, in 1991. Alina has become a global citizen, dividing her time between Miami, Florida, and Palma de Mallorca, Spain. Initially earning a degree in International Relations and Political Science, she worked as a television presenter for three stations in Moldova. However, during a two-year stay in Bolzano, Italy, she discovered her true passion for painting. A holiday in Palma de Mallorca captivated her with the island’s unique light, inspiring her to begin painting. She attended painting courses for two years, transforming her intense passion into a professional career.
Alina’s work is distinguished by two distinct styles. Her figurative paintings depict real-life ballerinas with elegance, delicacy, and sensitivity, creating the effect of a live ballet performance on canvas. In contrast, her abstract paintings, dominated by blue, reflect her obsession with this hue, representing the sky and sea of Mallorca through ink and natural pigments. Her art, with its figurative allure and abstract expressions, serves as a reflection of her innermost emotions. From graceful ballerinas to vibrant hues of blue, each stroke on canvas tells a story of passion and resilience. Alongside traditional mediums, she has delved into the realms of digital art, exploring 3D animation and the exciting world of NFTs.
At the present, the artist created a new series “Gipsy” which embodies feminine elegance, sensuality, and mystery. Meticulously hand-painted, it features jewels inspired by real pieces from different eras. The jewels depicted in this artwork are inspired by real pieces from different eras, adding a layer of authenticity and historical richness to the portrait. The dress, with its intricate details, adds a dimension of sophistication and refinement, highlighting the opulence and status of the figure portrayed.
The past nine years have been a whirlwind of creativity and growth, marked by international exhibitions that have taken her work to Spain, the US, and Germany. She has participated in main fairs such as Art Santa Fe, Affordable Art, Context-Art Miami among others.
