Dragoș Bădiță is a visual artist and filmmaker who lives and works in Bucharest, Romania. His physical media (including oil and ink) and digital works (including generative art, video, and animation) have been screened and exhibited around the world, and reflect on the transience of experience and a connection to a broader understanding of reality. Bădiță’s works originate from fleeting, lived moments that become infused with existential and sometimes mystical themes and states of mind.
