Odeta Catana – Bed Desks

What is on our bed desk says something about ourselves and more even about each person from the Home of Elderly People. The project tries to visually represent the personality of each person in two ways, by what it has on his bed desk and by his own portrait.

The pictures are taken with the help of the seniors from the Home of Elderly people Antim Ivireanu, Calarasi, Romania, in April 2012
