Vasile Rata – Moldova/Romania

*Vasile Rata said that he is coming from the Republic of Moldova, and by some mistake he arrived in Bucharest, Romania, and started learning art, but he finished actually in Moscow in the Department of Artistic Cinema. Then he had a Masters Degree in Italy after he went there for an exchange experience. Now he is activating on many areas of artistic experiments.

He’s now in an art camp (Inter-art International) and he’s very happy to be here, because this art camp offers him the possibility to exchange information in artistic areas with artists, not just artistically speaking, but also in human contact. A few years ago this was not possible, this human contact. With exhibitions and people organizing exhibitions, you could see the artists’ work, but it was not a direct contact that happened between people. Being in this camp is a human experience actually, getting to know people, trying to communicate, in an artistic way, but also like souls, like spirits. He thinks this is very, very important for an artist, because there are some countries, for example, like people from the Orient that he didn’t know anything about, their art and culture. It was so nice for him to find out so many new things in this art camp.

He thinks everything in this camp is about communication, changing ideas, finding new things about human nature and culture, and how different we are and, at the same time, how much we have in common.
