TRANSYLVANIA:
THE LAND BEYOND THE FOREST

These images are part of an ongoing series depicting life in rural Transylvania. This mountainous and remote region of Eastern Europe is steeped in history and lore. The rugged Carpathian Mountains kept invaders at bay

and kept the remote villages isolated from the passage of time. 


I am drawn to this region and these people because it reminds me of a vanishing way of life that I experienced at my grandparent’s village in Hungary every summer.  As a child, I was oblivious to the poverty and

hardship that people faced and only saw the enchantment.


With my camera I work to recapture this feeling of storybook wonder and show domestic tableaux and rural people as I remember them.
