Roma Interiors by Carlo Gianferro



Carlo Gianferro won the World Press Photo 1st prize ('Stories' category) for his work on Moldovan and Romanian Roma homes.


The World Press:
The homes of affluent Roma in Romania and Moldova are a visible demonstration of material wealth as well as family prestige and power. Little is allowed to disturb pristine interiors. Kitchens serve primarily for display, as women prefer to cook outdoors in communal cauldrons alongside friends and neighbors. Well-to-do Roma parents start to build and decorate homes and apartments for their offspring long in advance of anticipated marriages.
