The film director Laurențiu Damian reconstructs the figure of the plastic artist Ion Nicodim (1932-2007), starting from pictures and films from the family archive, using artist’s lyrical-diarist notes. The documentary is a lively, spectacular, creative visual essay that highlights the works of Ion Nicodim – both sculptures of “Hearts of clay” series, as well as mural compositions, paintings, and installations.

Quotes:

„I thought that, through my art, I am above this passing. It was an illusion. But I got something in return: the right to build this game of return anytime I felt lost in my private loneliness.”

„If I think about it, I haven’t made paintings, not sculptures, but feelings.”
