​„In my vision, the structure/ the pattern becomes matter. I represent patterns which i distort thru different techniques, suggesting some deviations from `normality', deviations that lead back to individual - to line - by redesigning the general composition of the works" (Claudia Brăileanu)

Claudia Brăileanu's works speak of a mechanic aesthetic, based on elements from mathematics, apparently rigid, very technical and full of 'rigid' meanings. The line, first element in any technique, becomes subject and object for image construction; the unifies two dots or two states. Patterns are formal experiences, every human being has behavioral, social and emotional patterns - in a purely formal dialogue. The technical aesthetic of a line evolved in a pattern becomes means of communicating personal experience. We see the line, we understand the line, but we can also communicate with line.

The primary element of the approaches to Claudia's works becomes the line-central structure which, by repetition / addition, creates structures, or as she calls it, "patterns" that lead to the idea that the line is a simple nucleus of approach, of a whole.

Contemporary art has lost the attributes of modern art: it is no longer prophetic, new or visionary.

Its existence and its theoretical applications have the role of documenting real situations and projecting the social reflections of experiences in the everyday world. Through multiple expressions and postmodernist paraphrases, recent art manages to evoke the social system to explain the individuality of each artist. The visual tools that are mostly used are photography, video image, happenings or performances that have the greatest aesthetic and moral impact. Everything is focused on action and deepening of one's own research. (Eugen Rădescu, curator)
