Art is a canvas woven with threads from one’s own spirit. To be an artist means to reveal what you see, feel, and live — openly and sincerely — guided by a love for beauty and diversity. I want to share with you the shapes that light takes through photography, drawing, and painting

iulia șuta – a kind of bio

iulia was born and raised in Brașov, Romania. She studied mathematics and computer science in high school and later earned a degree in telecommunications. For seven years, she worked as a programmer — until she felt her soul was fading in the IT world and began searching for deeper meaning. Art became one of the answers to her quest.

Since childhood, she has loved photography. After buying her first camera, she never stopped taking pictures. In 2015, she discovered a passion for drawing and painting during an art course, which opened a new creative path.

Her first solo exhibition, “SHAPES”, took place in 2016 at the Ora O Gallery in Brașov. The works were partly abstract, inviting viewers to interpret them freely. Visitors were asked, “What do you see in this image?” — their imaginative responses sparked stories, laughter, and joy.

Since then, inspiring creativity in others has become one of iulia’s main focuses. She believes the world needs more creative people, and that imagination is essential to life. During her exhibitions, she noticed how difficult it can be for people to think creatively — many are too accustomed to concrete thinking. Yet once they start playing the game of “What could it be?” they become like happy children again.

Her choice of abstract art comes naturally. Firstly because her sense of beauty is activated and also as it invites people to see beyond the obvious. Abstract art opens the door to countless possibilities because it has no fixed definition. For iulia abstract art represents another world, one that cannot be grasped by the mind alone, where all the senses awaken. It’s like a glimpse into an invisible dimension.

She is often asked what exactly is depicted in her photographs. The answers always brings enthusiasm, because the subjects are often ordinary, everyday objects. Yet through her unique use of light, angle, and perspective, they become unrecognizable — transformed. And that is the essence of her work: in the end, it doesn’t matter what the object is. What matters is the story you create while looking at it.
