Preoccupied by the problems of genesis and of the man's purpose in the world, by the abyss but also by the ontological zenith, Romeo Ionescu doesn't evade the capital interrogations. He has a personal point of view on the world beginnings and doesn't hesitate to visualize the primordial horizon where, in Plato's version, the androgynous myth was confined.

From this to the Cucuteni plastic art with its anthropomorphous statuettes and the idols of a rudimentary cult, the way was direct and profitable. The Cucuteni quotation is integrated on its decorative side and used in the sense of valorizing the great refinement drawing. The totem, the image of labyrinth and of meander give coherence to a direction that is intelligent through option and remarkable through performance. The old graphies have the chance of becoming cultural archetypes.
