Alexander Tinei
This exhibition, “Saved for Fire,” Tinei’s third solo show in Japan, will feature more than nine new paintings. Alexander Tinei was born in Moldova in 1967. He graduated from Chisinau Repin State College of Fine Art in 1991. Tinei is internationally regarded for his compelling and enigmatic paintings depicting ethereal figures marked with mysterious blue lines.
In recent years, Alexander Tinei has produced a body of work on the theme of roots. The word “roots” immediately conjures up a wealth of diverse scenarios. We use it to describe the complex tubers that tunnel in and out of the ground to secure and feed plants and trees; to refer to the source of an idea, a problem, family, ethnic or cultural origins – even to describe the embedded part of a bodily organ or structure. The evocative nature of the word and the multifarious images it can describe make it an ideal source of exploration for an artist.
