The similarity between each composition ? the landscape format, the colourful centred arrangement, the consistent distance between photographer and subject - belies a deeper message: the produce suggests sustenance, growth and plenty; while the memorials are a sign of tragedy and grief.

Le fotografie sono state realizzate durante brevi soste ai lati della strada e presentano due categorie distinte di oggetti: frutta coltivata in casa, verdure e altri prodotti in vendita, accuratamente esposti su sgabelli o piccoli tavoli; e memoriali di fiori, croci e corone per le vittime della strada. La somiglianza tra ogni composizione - il formato del paesaggio, la disposizione colorata al centro, la distanza costante tra il fotografo e l'oggetto - nasconde un messaggio più profondo: i prodotti suggeriscono sostentamento, crescita e abbondanza; mentre i memoriali sono un segno di tragedia e dolore. Karpaten / Carpathians non è quindi solo una collezione di foto di viaggio, ma un riflesso del bisogno umano di dare forma agli eventi, e una storia succinta della vita e della morte - entrambe realtà lungo la strada metaforica su cui tutti noi viaggiamo.
