About
Sabina Scorțanu Iacub is a Moldovan-Romanian graphic designer and multimedia artist based in the Netherlands. Her work emerges from a long-lived fascination with relational metamorphic dynamics between meteorological, biological, and anthropological phenomena. These dynamics are documented through gazing, active listening, and observation exercises, so they can be re-interpreted within a framework of interdisciplinary re-imagination, through vernacular methodologies, and ocasionally self-made tools, that react and communicate with unpredictable volatile conditions within the environment in cause.
Sabina is interested in how inherited vernacular knowledge and adaptive behaviours, can morph into visionary modes of existence, shifting between observation scales. These visions are orchestrated through storytelling acts shaped by audiovisual works, radiophonic installations and digital realms.
