Gherca is most likely using a digital format for his
photographs, although it is not clearly stated whether or not he sued digital
or analog. He also used a color format in the majority of his photos, but some
in his collection use monochrome, or other color modes. Most, if not all of the
pictures that were featured were shot during the day.
Gherca’s subject is capturing the daily lives of those who
live in extreme poverty in Bucharest, Romania. In this collection, he focuses
on the people and their surroundings, including their homes, to showcase. He
also captures their possessions and interactions with nature, such as the
people bonding with birds and dogs. He also shows how the residents interact
with each other.
I found interest in Gherca’s work, mainly due to the fact
that it shows how people around the world deal with poverty. Like many other photographic
collections that show extreme poverty, it always makes it known to the viewer
that poverty is an extreme issue that occurs worldwide, and most often in the
same city that they live in.
