My name is Felicia Simion and I’m a 26-year-old photographer living in Bucharest, Romania. In 2016 I started an MA in Ethnology, Cultural Anthropology and Folklore, which determined me to begin documenting traditions in my country.
I travelled around Romania (Transylvania, Maramureș, Oltenia) to photograph old customs and celebrations in order to keep their memory alive. I learnt that communities will keep their customs as long as they will be useful to them. As communities age, their practices disappear, too.
As I approached the theme of cultural identity, I became more aware of the cultural diversity of my own country, but also its ephemeral character.
