About The Artwork
In 2016 I had the opportunity to join a group of "busos" (pronounced: bushows) as the first photographer ever, to document their river crossing tradition. During the annual Poklade ("Buso" festivities), on Sunday, a large group of busos (men wearing scary, hand.crafted wooden masks, and sheepskin coats) and women wearing tradition clothes cross the River Danube in wooden rowing boats. Before crossing the river, they have a huge fire on the island, dance, talk, eat and drink. This tradition has a historical heritage, coming from an old legend, which says that this group crossed the river during the night and scared the sleeping Turkish occupiers who left the city, and thus its inhabitants became free again. Giclée Print on Hahnemühle Paper Printed with 5cm border.
