Andrei Nacu

(b. 1984, Iași)

Andrei Nacu (b. 1984, Iași) is a visual artist based between London, UK, and Iași, Romania. His artistic practice delves into the intersection of personal memory and social history, often exploring the tensions between the intimate and the collective through documentary photography, family albums, and photographic archives. In his recent work, Nacu expands his practice to include video, installation, and performance, with a keen focus on the political dimensions of art, ethics, and the limitations of representation. His work critically engages with how personal narratives intertwine with larger historical and social contexts. Nacu studied photography at the University of Wales, Newport, UK, and the George Enescu National University of Arts, Iași, Romania, where he developed a deep understanding of visual storytelling and its potential to shape public discourse and memory.
