Heart felt and beautiful in its simplicity, Bucharest, Romania

Now Romania is not a place one thinks to go to, like one would plan and save to go to Italy, or Greece. But that is a pity as it is a land of strange connected beauty, the city of Bucharest is an odd blend of parks that are more like deep green forests right in the middle of the urban centre and the architecture, which defies classification, just keep on surprising, bemusing and intriguing. While shiftazine was wondering these strange, unfamiliar streets, they discovered this exhibition. Now the artist only spoke Romanian, and shifatzine, while speaking the universal language of creativity, does not speak that particular tongue. So it was up to the work itself to speak for itself.
Make of it what you will, shiftazine thinks it is all very beautiful.
