Slovak Renaissance by Petra Lajdová (2012-2014)

Contemporary art photography of the beauty and artistry of Slovak traditional costumes, specifically headpieces and the upper parts. The multi-colored character of these parts of Slovak folk costumes has its origins in Slovakia’s wealth of natural beauty – it’s diverse terrain, mountains, valleys, green lowlands, wide meadows, rolling hills, mountain pools and lakes. In addition, the costumers’ richness emerges from the ethnically, socially and religiously diverse character of the country. All of this is reflected in their colorful patterns and the richly or simply decorated headpieces.
