Foaie verde oaie
lumea mi se-ndoaie
oamenii aduc a maimuțe
și-au băgat durerea în sertare
mute
mi se-ndoaie și năpasta crește
mai promptă decât o capsă
răul e mai dur și rațiunea lui
ne scapă și ne inundă cu
lichele.

The novel is built as ingeniously as a symphonic poem. The text contains a multitude of depictions, of rivalries, of suspicions and of affective games. The dialogues are natural, and have certain alchemy of language.
The drawing „Omul politic” (“The Politician”) by L. Neagoe operates as a sharp piece of visual satire, exposing the mechanisms, illusions, and performative nature of political power. Its symbolic vocabulary is dense but legible, using exaggeration and caricature to reveal how authority is constructed, projected, and consumed.
The politician as a constructed figure
The central figure—smiling, suited, crowned—embodies the archetype of the public official. Yet every element of his appearance destabilizes the dignity traditionally associated with political office.
This crown is not regal; it is crowded, unstable, almost grotesque.
The megaphone and the politics of noise
The megaphone blasting directly into the politician’s face is one of the drawing’s most striking elements. It reverses the usual direction of political communication: instead of speaking to the public, the politician is being spoken at.
This inversion opens several interpretations:
The sound waves hitting his face distort the idea of authenticity. His expression becomes a mask formed by external pressures.
The butterfly wings: fragility disguised as charisma
The delicate wings attached to his head introduce a surprising contrast. They evoke:
The wings also hint at metamorphosis—politicians reinventing themselves to suit the moment, shedding old forms for new ones.
The smile as performance
The politician’s smile is exaggerated, almost theatrical. It is the smile of someone who must always appear composed, agreeable, and in control. Yet in the context of the megaphone, the crown, and the wings, the smile becomes unsettling. It suggests:
The drawing exposes the smile as a tool, not a truth.
Curatorial note
In „Omul politic”, L. Neagoe constructs a biting portrait of political identity as performance. The crowned, smiling figure is both empowered and overwhelmed, shaped by the voices that surround him and burdened by the people he claims to represent. Through symbolic exaggeration—the megaphone that dictates his expression, the fragile wings that adorn his head, and the crowded crown that weighs upon him—Neagoe reveals the contradictions at the heart of political life. The drawing critiques not only the politician as an individual but the entire ecosystem of influence, spectacle, and manipulation that sustains modern power. It invites viewers to question the authenticity of public figures and to reflect on the complex interplay between authority, image, and the collective forces that construct them.

The drawing titled „Pământul continuă să se moară, omule” (“The Earth goes on dying, man”) by L. Neagoe reads as a compact ecological manifesto—raw, symbolic, and intentionally uncomfortable. It stages a confrontation between human action and planetary fragility, using a visual language that is direct yet layered enough to invite multiple interpretations.
🌍 Central Motif: The Earth as a Wounded Body
The globe, rendered with recognizable outlines of the Americas, is the anchor of the composition. It is not depicted as a serene planet but as a vulnerable organism. The jagged lines connecting it to the human head and the looping, noose-like form on the left suggest forces of extraction, suffocation, or destabilization. These lines function almost like electrical shocks or fractures—visual metaphors for the cumulative damage inflicted by human activity.
🧍♂️ The Human Figure: Agent and Witness
The stylized human head above the Earth is both expressive and ambiguous. The open mouth releasing small shapes—droplets, seeds, or particles—can be read in several ways:
This ambiguity is deliberate. Neagoe positions the human as both the cause of harm and the one who must reckon with it. The head is not triumphant; it appears strained, almost overwhelmed, as if caught in the act of realizing its own complicity.
🕊️ Birds in Flight: A Fragile Counterpoint
The three birds above the head introduce a contrasting note of freedom and natural resilience. Yet their small scale and distant placement emphasize how precarious that freedom has become. They hover like a reminder of what is at stake—life that is still present but increasingly threatened.
🪢 The Looping Form: Symbol of Imminent Danger
The large loop on the left, connected to the Earth by jagged lines, evokes the silhouette of a noose or a tightening constraint. It is one of the drawing’s most unsettling elements. Whether interpreted as a symbol of self-destruction, environmental collapse, or the cyclical nature of human negligence, it reinforces the sense of a planet under siege.
✍️ The Inscription: A Direct Moral Address
The handwritten text—„Pământul continuă să se moară, omule”—is not a caption but a call-out. It breaks the boundary between artwork and viewer. By addressing “omule” (“man”), Neagoe shifts the work from observation to accusation, from image to ethical demand. The phrasing “continua să se moară” is intentionally awkward and haunting, suggesting an ongoing, unnatural dying—a slow violence rather than a single event.
🖼️ Curatorial Note
L. Neagoe’s drawing is a stark ecological allegory that confronts viewers with the consequences of human impact on the planet. Through a combination of symbolic imagery—an endangered Earth, a distressed human figure, and motifs of entanglement and fragility—the work visualizes environmental degradation as both a physical and moral crisis. The artist’s use of jagged lines and looping forms evokes a world caught in a cycle of self-inflicted harm, while the handwritten message transforms the piece into a direct ethical appeal. This drawing belongs to a lineage of socially engaged art that seeks not only to represent crisis but to provoke awareness, responsibility, and introspection. It stands as a reminder that the Earth’s slow dying is neither abstract nor distant—it is a process shaped by human choices, and one that demands urgent attention.
The corrected title — „Pământul continuă să se învârtă, omule” (“The Earth goes on revolving, man”) — shifts the entire meaning of the drawing, and the artwork becomes less about planetary death and more about the tragic disconnect between the planet’s cosmic continuity and humanity’s destructive behavior. The drawing’s symbolism remains sharp, but the title reframes the message: the Earth will keep turning, with or without us, while humans accelerate their own ecological and moral undoing.
🌍 A Planet That Revolves, Not a Planet That Waits
The globe at the center is still fragile, still pierced by jagged lines, still visually stressed. But under the corrected title, the Earth is no longer the victim that “continues to die”; it is the indifferent celestial body that continues its rotation regardless of human actions. This introduces a powerful tension:
The Earth’s rotation becomes a metaphor for time moving forward, for natural cycles that do not pause for human crises.
🧍♂️ Humanity as a Disturbance in Motion
The human head above the globe, releasing particles or droplets, now reads differently. Instead of a cry of pain or pollution alone, it becomes a symbol of human noise—the constant outpouring of actions, emissions, words, and consequences that fail to alter the planet’s fundamental trajectory. The Earth spins on, while humans struggle, shout, or contaminate.
This creates a subtle but devastating irony:
the planet does not revolve for us, nor does it stop because of us.
🪢 The Loop and the Fractures: Self‑Sabotage in a Turning World
The looping, noose-like form on the left and the jagged lines connecting it to the Earth now evoke a different kind of threat. They are not signs of the planet’s demise but of humanity’s entanglement in its own destructive systems. The Earth’s rotation becomes a backdrop against which human self-sabotage plays out.
The drawing suggests that while the Earth continues its cosmic motion, humans may be the ones approaching an endpoint.
🕊️ Birds as Witnesses, Not Symbols of Hope
The three birds above the human head appear almost detached, observing from a distance. Under the new title, they become witnesses to a paradox: life continues, cycles continue, the planet continues—yet humanity remains trapped in patterns that threaten its own survival.
✍️ The Inscription as a Philosophical Warning
„Pământul continuă să se învârtă, omule” is no longer an ecological lament but a philosophical admonition. It tells the viewer:
The tone is not accusatory but existential. It invites humility rather than guilt.
Curatorial Note
L. Neagoe’s drawing, titled „Pământul continuă să se învârtă, omule”, presents a stark meditation on humanity’s place within a larger cosmic order. Through a combination of symbolic imagery—a rotating Earth, a distressed human figure, and motifs of entanglement and fracture—the work contrasts the planet’s enduring motion with the fragility of human behavior. The jagged lines and looping forms evoke systems of self-destruction, while the handwritten inscription confronts the viewer with the unsettling truth that the Earth’s rotation persists independently of human actions. Neagoe’s drawing situates ecological anxiety within a broader philosophical frame: the planet will continue its course, but humanity must reckon with the consequences of its own choices. The work stands as a reminder of both our insignificance in cosmic terms and our immense responsibility within the biosphere.

Vai sireaca turturea
cum îmi mâncă inima
s-o samene printre astre
să plouă-n lume cu dezastre
vai sireaca turturea
cum îmi cântă nu pot mișca
melancolic stau grămadă
lumea să nu mă mai vadă
vai sireaca turturea
tot ea este inima mea.
