“I like to find joy in mundane things, like the way sunlight falls on a wall or how common objects can add so much depth to a story. I don't think inspiration is something that you have to wait for, it's a state of being to observe and appreciate the things that make your heart feel something, good or bad.“

Livia Fălcaru is an illustrator and visual artist currently living and working in Bucharest, Romania. Her work is above all influenced by her personal experiences as a woman living in these times. The Romanian artist often finds herself fascinated by daily life and the emotions we might all feel but never care to mention. Although her illustrations are immersed in cheerful colors, the subjects approached are usually an in-depth view of raw emotions and realities, that ultimately serve as a medium for real and honest communication. Livia describes her work as constantly adapting to her growth process as an artist and human being. Her body of work merges both traditional and digital techniques and extends to other mediums such as ceramics, objects, murals and AR/VR.
“My work is mostly influenced by personal experiences and daily life scenes with a sprinkle of fat cats. I often find myself fascinated by the emotional landscapes that people have and how they translate into our day-to-day lives. I’m intrigued equally by subtle and strong feelings. Working with emotions and trying to translate them visually came in a natural way to me over time. It was my own recipe of letting out feelings in a constructive way. I like to use my work as a catalyst for conversation on delicate subjects, such as trauma. Although most of my art is deeply personal, people usually can relate easily because emotions are universal after all. I think it’s important that we become more open about what we feel.”

"I take most of my inspiration from nature. As a child, nature and all of the wildlife felt so magical. Being outside sparks that same childlike feeling. All of the patterns, shapes and colors found outdoors provide me with a desire to create it myself. Nature also brings a sense of connectivity, which is a feeling I want viewers to feel when they see my work."

“Inspiration is at the core of creativity. As an artist, inspiration is what drives me to continue to create, innovate, and find joy in making art. A lot of times, inspiration is portrayed as something that will strike us out of thin air. Many people feel like they have to wait around and hold off on creating anything until inspiration hits them, but in reality, inspiration is an ongoing process that you can cultivate in your everyday life.”
