The spirit of the village; Intimate portraits of Romanian elderly

Vlad Dumitrescu, a Romanian photographer, with a deep and humane look, the calm beauty and the elderly spirit of his country in the form of environmental and emotional portraits. Most of these photos are recorded in the heart of the pristine and intimate villages of Romania; Where Domitersco has traveled to it many times and has shaped his love for this land.

On every journey, he not only recorded the scenery, but the real links with the people of those areas; Also the links that transformed his artistic path. Photography for him was a way to keep the memory of rural life being forgotten; The warmth of wooden houses, lights that shine in the windows, and the dignity of the faces as if they are living history.

Vlad, who is fascinated by the daily traditions and rituals of Romanian villages, walks into homes as if they were stopped in time and recorded intimate and immortal moments. His portraits are beyond the pictures; They appear to be emotional documents that reflect the power, gentleness and simplicity of life near nature.

Whether in the golden sunset, or behind a simple window in a rural kitchen, every photo shows deep respect for human heritage and communication. The second lens not only praises the elderly, but also brings a kind, dirt and forgotten world to the viewer; A world that is full of decency and originality. (121clicks)
