Romania's capital city, Bucharest, displays an elegant past that, after 40 years of communism and corruption, is now reaching levels of decay that may defy renovation. Over the past ten years, I have tried to create a parallel between the image of Princess Brianna Caradja, whose aristocratic family was driven out of Romania by politics, and of the capital city that is crumbling both physically and socially. With my journalistic background, I attempt to mirror the forgotten, ignored grandeur of both the physical and social institutions of my homeland.

UNWRITTEN
The series, Unwritten, tries to create a parallel between the use of literary tropes to create interest and enhance the written word, and the use of light, shadow, and shape to create similar effects in the visual language of photography.
