ROXANA ENACHE

Roxana is an artist who’s creations concentrate in works that employ, mainly, in visual environment: photography, painting, graphics, design. Presently she is in Bucharest studying Interior Design at University of Architecture and Urbanism “Ion Mincu”.

Passionate about visual arts, she starts taking amateur pictures in 2005. Photography becoming more than a passion, also grew to be the method of communication regarding self and surroundings, this explaining the profound contemplative nature of the “character” captured in that fraction of a second which highlights the static emotion.

For Roxana Enache, photography becomes language, detaches for its physical existence and it changes to self referent, perceived by the viewer as an emotion. Her compositions are balanced, harmonious and underline concept and strong message. Roxana works especially with black and white photography and monochrome.

Combining the two elements, we will obtain a professional environment, ideal for developing Bucharest’s cultural and tourism aspects.
