Aurelia Mărginean Stoie

Aurelia Mărginean Stoie sculpted Frumusețea orașului Deva and drew Peisaj (Ercea) sat, works rooted in the quiet realism of mid-20th-century Romanian art. Her sculpture frames Deva’s architecture in flowing lines that catch the city’s light at dusk. Her pencil drawings trace the Ercea valley’s scattered houses, their gabled roofs stacked like playing cards against rolling hills. She kept a small sketchbook in her pocket and filled it with quick lines of lamplight on shutters and laundry strung between poplars. Put your finger on the valley itself: step into Peisaj (Ercea) sat.
