In 2020, after spending three years abroad and shortly after becoming a father, I returned to Bucharest in the midst of the Covid pandemic and began once again documenting the city, initially during long walks with my baby daughter.
Shaped by these shifts, I adopted a more meditative approach, narrowing the camera’s field of view to dig deeper, searching for new meanings in the familiar cracks and imperfections that define Bucharest’s urban landscape.
Photographed primarily in the central and northern neighbourhoods where my daily life unfolds, the images reframe the commonplace, capturing the city’s contradictory beauty. They often reveal unexpected, sometimes absurd juxtapositions and ephemeral scenes, flashes of a city in constant transformation.
