Radu Belcin was born in Brasov, Romania where he still lives and works. He studied at the National University of Art in Bucharest.

Radu Belcin catches attention by new associations of characters, or objects, in a chiaroscuro-painted atmosphere. Starting the quest from the expression of reality study, Belcin explore the identities of the individual and of the present. The frame of such visual exploration is addressed in chiaroscuro.The delight of long shadows elongating in the background, the sparks of light, coming from the spot lights create the atmosphere that leads to a world of dreams or nightmares.
