Valeriu Mladin is an international European visual artist, who lives and works in Romania. His talent, related to everything that can lay under the aegis of the term techne, cannot be questioned by any viewer, but the whole story of his creation begins right here.
According to the mythology of ancient Greece, the chimera is a fabulous animal improbably made up of plausible parts from many animals. Artistic representations of chimeras are a constant to this day. The artistic or commercial stake, however, is different, from creator to creator. The iconographic source can be a pretext for drawing or color, or it can play the main role, in a semiological context.
