   • In his photographic series from the 1970s, such as Mimicry (1975) and Traisteni (The Serf) (1976),\ Grigorescu used his own body as his subject.

   Why did Grigorescu self-censor his work?

   • Grigorescu limited his practice to the privacy of his studio or to the countryside in order to avoid censorship and persecution. Faced with restrictions on both the form and content of his work, as seen in his short film Male and Female (1976) or his photographic collage Marica at the Seaside (1971–74), he chose to work in these areas to ensure his art was not censored.
