the artwork “my childhood” was part of the exhibition “epic”(2013, see install shot) dedicated to the great adventurer ulysses, a character that has the only desire to come back home. Returning home involves a series of adventures, memories, desires, tests. Heraclitus in plato's ''cratylus'' was saying: ''everything changes and nothing stays still [\.] you cannot step twice in the same river.''
''my childhood'' is about remembering an ideal time, about sunny days full of warmth and freedom. It's about childhood, as we remember it over years, as a time and place with unprecedented perfumes.
rădvan wrote about this work: “it has happened that none of the places where i grew up exist anymore. Either they have disappeared, or they have changed so much that they have become a new place that does not mean anything for me, which i do not have a common history. I avoid them because it makes me sad not to recognize them and i do not want them to hate them. This painting is an old memory of my ''paradiso perduto''. This piece has an attribution mark,
i am sure that it is completely authentic and take full responsibility for any authenticity
