How does one tackle the Hidden, Forgotten or Abandoned when approaching a context to which these categories apply? Moreover, how does one do this using photography, a medium inherently imbued in such acts as remembrance and documentation.
The Danube segment passing through Romania is ironically both the longest and the most neglected and poorly documented. A situation that has its roots in extensive years of careless or corrupt management, often indifferent to political shifts. These circumstances serving as backdrop, Like Water Under the Bridge attempts to seize that which eschews usual documentation, using multiple photographic forms and layers.
