Pavol Breier is a documentary and experimental photographer who observes the unvarnished aspects of daily life in Slovak regions. The Roma communities have a distinct culture and very photogenic, joyful temperament.
Despite struggling with unemployment and segregation, they are an inseparable (but still underestimated) part of Slovak world. Other photographers, such as Ján Cifra, Michal Suchý or Tibor Huszár captured the life specifics of Roma people as well.
