Factory: Harvest
While working on the «Memory of the Earth» project, I was inspired by Moldovan culture, family traditions, and the grape-harvesting process, which became a symbol for me of the connection between generations and homeland. Within the framework of the project, the standard factory T-shirt transformed into the base for an original photographic print that reflects the atmosphere of a Moldovan village.
