CRITICAL REVIEW

        Daniel Popa`s art has the spiritual tenderness of the circularity of time. The artist is concerned with the matter`s metaphysic dimension, with the mixture between palpable and imaginary, with the weight of the being as a minimal stance of the macrocosm, with the necessity of sacrifice as an unbalancing element between man and divinity.
        Determined by the wish to understand the transitory stages of a being`s completion, inspired by the various behaviours of certain characters from the field of folk or theological mythology, Daniel Popa tends to discover, comprehend and undertake an ordering principle, the force of which can tolerate and integrate the manifestation of an original and innovative force.
