Marius Ancuța presents the human body as meditation theme. The anthropomorphism has been of interest for the artists even since his studentship. Most likely to be fascinated by the idea of incoherence and digression specific to the postmodern discourse, the artist proposes different types of representation. On the one hand, large imposing figures, made out of welded steel that rebuild the idea of a futuristic setting, on the other hand, he keeps based on a personal selection just some parts of the body, that help him produce another type of composition, more objectual, more pop, that is closer and in debate with the nowadays consumism.These fragments that detach themselves from the larger figures, are also incomplete, suggesting an apocalyptic consumation.This association of inequable elements offers a neodadaist perspective, ment to stun by the absurd irony of startling encounters.

The works suggest the idea of human representation, perceived as material entity submitted to fragmentation. However this is not a reductionist process but an opening to new sensuous experiences, which by interacting with the whole, recreate a new body, trying to become one with time and space, as mnemonic exponent of conceiving reality. Human roots for example try to condense the structure and power of the being, where the synecdotical human presence is represented through a symbolical realism that reiterates the archetypes and alludes to origins. The sculpture institutes the verticality, the principality of human being, idea emphasized also by the natural rooting.
