Paul Mironov, a welder, has turned Galati University's hallways into a gallery of scrap metal sculptures made from materials like bicycle chains and spark plugs. His work, which he says reflects his love for beauty rather than artistry, has intrigued visitors. Among his impressive creations is a self-portrait that took 18 months to perfect. The exhibition has generated interest in the possibility of establishing a permanent museum to display such works, highlighting the potential for creativity to breathe new life into discarded materials.
The exhibition has sparked interest in a permanent display. 'We are considering a museum of diversity,' said Arthur Tulus, Dean of Galati University. 'We just need the right space.'
Mironov, who insists he is not an artist but a man who 'loves beauty,' has spent years refining his craft. His most challenging piece, a self-portrait, took 18 months to complete.
