Style and technology

Iacob is a master of figurative and landscape painting. He achieves his depth of color through often contrasting layering of tones, creating an effect that is both startling and enchanting. Soft contours imply sensuality and melancholy; the use of unexpected perspectives and cropping is thereby placed in a very personal and haunting context that inspires curiosity and thoughtfulness.
