White, cold, still.Silent winter.
I am an artist, born (19th July 1985) and raised in Romania, living now in Frankfurt, Germany. As a child, I wanted to become a painter and I began to study painting by my own, having a lot of art books at home from my parents. My passion for fine art photography started in 2008.
In my images I try to photograph the silence, being interested in the poetry of the ordinary, always searching for expression in the commonly overlooked scenes that surround us. I enjoy photographing in ''bad weather'', when the landscape is covered with snow, fog and mist or simply under an endless grey sky.
