Gajewszky Anna (1997) is a photographer based in Budapest, with family roots in the Ciuc region of Transylvania. In autumn 2026, she is a grantee of the Culture Moves Europe Individual Mobility programme.

During the scholarship period, she focuses on the living traditions of breadmaking in rural Transylvania, in families where baking bread in a traditional oven remains a practice with deep cultural significance. Through photography and fieldwork (interviews), she explores how bread functions not only as food, but also as a symbol of feminine care, fertility, and collective heritage. The rituals of kneading, baking, and sharing carry embodied knowledge passed down through generations, connecting nourishment with memory and the continuation of life.
