Alina Câmpean

Alina Câmpean (Transylvania, Romania, 1998) is a self-taught-photographer and a student of architecture in Cluj-Napoca. She also works in painting, graphic design and literature. In Alina’s words, “[p]hotography and writing have always been two of my interests and were the things that helped me escape or enter my internal world since childhood. I cannot say that I have already found my personal style in photography or art, but what catches my eye is stillness, clarity, textures, and I think that what inspires my work most is the light: the way it creates shapes and volume, how it makes buildings shine and how it reveals details, or how it goes through the trees in a forest. I work with both digital and analog cameras, but the most important part of the creative process begins after capturing the scenes, because I try to experiment with every photo and impress on them the knowledge and feelings I developed throughout my life. I do not have a favorite media, because I believe we can turn simple images into wonderful pieces without using any special instruments, but rather using what we've in front of us and the feelings we receive from it.
