Pandi Dacu's photography isn't just a collection of images; it's a heartfelt journey into the heart of rural Romania. Her pictures don't just capture moments; they encapsulate the very soul of village life, each frame resonating with raw emotions and untold stories. As I immerse myself in her work, I'm transported back to the rolling hills and rustic charm of Romanian villages, feeling the tug of "dor" (longing) deep within me. It's as if Pandi's lens has the power to evoke memories long forgotten, prompting me to pick up the phone and reconnect with my roots in Bucharest. Her art isn't just a portrayal of rural life; it's a reflection of her profound bond with the land and its people.

“Welcome to 'Echoes of Time,' a poignant exploration of life's twilight in a Romanian village through the lens of photography. This exhibition invites you to journey through the weathered streets and ancient courtyards where time seems to stand still.
Each photograph is a window into the lives of the elders who call this village home, capturing moments of quiet reflection, enduring resilience, and the profound beauty of the twilight years.
