În 17 decembrie 2010, aproximativ 300 de persoane au fost evacuate din locuinţele lor de pe strada Coastei, o zonă centrală a Clujului. Cererile lor depuse pentru locuinţe sociale în urma notificării primite de la primărie au fost aprobate în 2 zile. Toţi au fost mutaţi într-o locaţie marginală: Pata Rât, vecinătatea rampei de gunoi şi a unei staţii de deşeuri chimicale, la 5 kilometri până la cea mai apropiată staţie de autobuz. Au fost aruncaţi din spaţiul oraşului multicultural. În spaţii de locuire nedemne de condiţia umană. 190 de persoane au fost incluse pe contractele noilor “locuinţe sociale”: 10 case modulare compuse din câte 4 camere (de 15 sau 18 metri pătraţi fiecare) şi câte o baie sub 6 metri pătraţi. Circa 60 de persoane au rămas fără locuinţe în urma evacuării lor în timp de iarnă, adăpostându-se la rudele cu contracte.
Proiectarea inadecvată şi execuţia precară a construcţiilor, care încalcă prevederile legale privind standardele locuinţelor (Anexa 1, Legea 114/1996), a generat o situaţie de supraaglomerare, igrasie, izolare proastă a acoperişului şi ventilaţie improprie a încăperilor, care, cumulativ, afectează puternic sănătatea oamenilor. Stigmatizarea oamenilor prin plasarea lor lângă groapa de gunoi, marginalizarea comunităţii anterior integrate în oraş, îngreunarea accesului la şcoală, la locuri de muncă şi la participarea activă în viaţa urbei, încalcă drepturile lor umane fundamentale.

On the 17th of December 2010, approximately 300 persons were evicted from their homes from Coastei street, a central area of Cluj. Notified by the Mayor’s office to apply for social houses, their request was approved in two days. All were moved into a marginal location: Pata Rat, the vicinity of the municipal garbage dump and a chemical waste station, at 5 kilometers from the closest bus station. They were thrown away from the space of the multicultural city. Into undignified spaces of living. 190 persons were included on the contracts of the new “social houses”: 10 modular buildings composed of 4 rooms each (of 15 or 18 square meters) and a bathroom under 6 square meters. Circa 60 persons remained without homes as a result of their eviction under heavy winter time, are hosted by their relatives with contracts.
The improper projection and execution of the constructions do not respect the Romanian legal provisions regarding housing standards (Annex 1, Law 114/ 1996). They generated over-crowedness, dampness, bad insulation and inappropriate ventilation. Cumulated, all these affect negatively the tenant’s health condition. People’s stigmatization through their placement near the landfill, together with the marginalization of a community formerly integrated into the city, and the hindered access to schools, jobs and active participation in the city’s social life, violates their fundamental human rights.
These three works are my bachelor in arts, they are made on transparent plastic and gives the work a theatrical look, it also allows you to see different aspects of it. It is printed on paper because of the multiplying technique of silkscreen and for a better view of the story.
But actually the real purpose of the work was to make the viewer a bit the creator of the work. So seeing the image layer by layer it gave the possibility to understand to internal logic of creating the image and in the process of understanding it you were selecting which objects or angle you’re like the most so you are actually making an image for yourself. As a result every viewer was having a different imagine of remembering the object. And this effect worked because the object was exposed in an exhibition and people couldn’t understand what attracted them.
And I apply this type of methodology to almost all of my work. I am presenting one thing and the purpose of my work is one that only a trained viewer can see.
