Alesia Robu

Working mostly with film, my focus falls on the research of social and interpersonal decay, exploring methods of gruesomeness, body horror, and hyper-individualism.

Taking apart the concept of decay and rebuilding it to emphasize the psychological state rather than a physical state, I am captivated by the ongoing research on the human psyche and its development through non-physical violence.

Engaging in both classical storytelling and experimental filmmaking, I’m working towards exploring the vast unknown of symbolic violence and its hindering effects on a fragile collective as well as individual. I strive to start a conversation, to question the lack of community, and to shape the dangers of isolation through a more visually strong approach.
