Paul Hitter: Maria Tanase



Paul Hitter takes great inspiration from Roma culture and insists you call him a Gypsy not Roma even although he is neither of the two. That he has no Gypsy blood flowing through his veins does not diminish the strength of his vision. Hitter's Gypsyness is a transfusion of Gypsy spirit.

  • We are what we feel we are...We are given a name, a nationality, etc. but we have to build our own, original, identity...Could be other than what we were given...Reminds me of Japanese artists in the 17-18 century who took another name each time they considered they entered another stage of their art...
