Life is gold
The photograph emphasizes the strong contrast between the poor and rich, two extremes of the human society lifestyle. While the lower part of the composition shows a huge street commercial for an expensive fragrance – a gold and warm look, the upper part presents the building against which the banner is displayed – a misery and cold, cloudy look. The antithesis is striking! The photograph was captured on the streets of Bucharest.

Biography
To paraphrase Edvard Munch, my photography is a confession and through it I seek to clarify to myself my relationship to the world. Although I have always been drawn by photography, only recently I started to take it more seriously. In my attempt to find meaning in my inner world, I try to put a meaning in my photography of the outer world. It is an endeavor to connect my inner self to the world outside and find my truth – and others, theirs, through my photography. I am doing it as an amateur, it’s not my profession. I am 41 years old and live in Romania.
