Nita Mocanu

Nita Mocanu (b.1977) is an art teacher and visual artist. She lives and works in Arad (Romania).

In her works, she combines a personal poetic with social commitment, visible through the period of video activism with the D Media group. Her more recent works represent her new interest in the analysis of connections between body, the theories of consciousness, perception, a world of objects, the construction of status quo, language, ecology and the new materialism. She works mostly with text, photography, video art and video performance.
