Comfort, 2022
Simona Mihaela Stoia (BE/RO,1982 )
Installation
In her installation Comfort (2022) Romanian-Belgian painter Simona Mihaela Stoia represents the inevitable but starkly different forces of man and forces of nature that conquer a space, resulting in continuous reconstruction.
Nestled in the quaint village of Saint-Cirq Lapopie, Stoia draws upon not only its rich history but also its transformation. This year, Stoia utilizes both artificial objects and nature found throughout the village in the making of Comfort (2022). Objects such as earplugs portray the significance of the Second World War particularly in reference to the Surrealist movement. Alternatively, the scattering of vibrant m&m’s at the base of the piece reveals a certain absurdity. Stoia sees the texture and the relationships between colors as means of construction. In the artist’s own words, “I built this as a painting in my head.”
As stated by the twentieth-century philosopher and art historian Hans Theys in 2020, Stoia possesses the unique ability to “create paintings that… that on a closer look breaks up into countless harmonious colors that are not different values of the same tone, but individually touched, autonomous tones, which she can ‘see’ beforehand.” Stoia’s approach to painting emanates through the composition of the installation Comfort (2022) that harnesses the dichotomy between the conservation of the past and the pure practicality of modern society.
