Liviu Mocan

Liviu Mocan is a Romanian sculptor. He was born in 1955 in Cara village, Transilvania. He studied at the Art Academy in Cluj- Napoca, Romania, followed by post academic studies in the U.S. Under the atheist communist government of his country, he started to understand, love and follow Jesus Christ. Since that time he values the fact that he is a creation higher than the fact that he is a creator. Sculptures become for him his altar, his prayers, his tears, his joy, his spiritual exercises of understanding God, the world, beauty and himself. His main artistic preoccupation revolves around matters of resurrection in large series of work such Seeds, Pillars, and Vertical Libraries. ‘I am striving to polish mirrors for heaven,’ the artists says.
