Mihaela Noroc, a 30-year-old Romanian photographer, knows that there’s much more to beauty than what is displayed in glossy fashion magazines. To prove it to the world, she quit her job, went traveling, and started The Atlas of Beauty, a photography project for which Noroc took portraits of young women from 60 different countries.
For Noroc, “beauty means to keep alive your origins and your culture. To be natural, sincere, authentic, particular, not necessary fashion.”
