Her paintings unfold as a dance of color, intuition, and texture. Moving freely across fabric and canvas, her hands orchestrate a waltz of expression where instinct and craftsmanship intertwine. Each piece emerges as a talisman of vitality and distinction—infusing spaces with good energy and grace.
Rooted in gestural abstraction, Elena’s creative process embraces spontaneity, material exploration, and the beauty of controlled accidents. Her brushstrokes are intuitive yet masterful, evoking harmony, passion, and a palpable sense of depth.
Shaped by a global perspective, her artistic voice draws from the cultural richness of Southern Europe, the elegance of Western traditions, and the bold expressiveness of Latin America. This diverse heritage informs her approach to color, texture, and composition, creating a style that resonates universally.
Elena’s works belong to distinguished private collections and have been integrated into bespoke projects for residential, hospitality, and corporate spaces. As co-founder of Allec Petrescu Art Gallery, she also curates exhibitions and collaborates with collectors, designers, and developers—furthering her mission to bring soulful, transformative artworks into contemporary environments.
