8. Cămășinemuritoare / Timeless Shirts is a two-volume book that celebrates our culture and, according to MădălinaAndronic, is meant to be a bridge between the past and the present, being at the same time an ode to the women who keep the ancestral traditions alive. It all started in 2020 in oktober, with the Instagram challenge, when MădălinaAndronic painted a traditional Romanian shirt every day, for the whole month of October. She filmed the painting process daily and shared it on social media. The challenge proved very successful and joining forces with Ioana Corduneanu’s expertise, the project turned into a book. The books share stories and details of the traditional Romanian shirt (ia), which is part of the national costume. While having a simple cut, the shirt, made of flax, hemp, cotton or silk, is embellished with geometrical or floral motifs that differ from one geographic area to another. Timeless Shirts features models from various regions of the country, containing information in both Romanian and English, patterns and illustrations. And yes, for the most creative of us, the illustrations work as colouring books as well. The launch of Timeless Shirts coincides with a very fortunate event: UNESCO has included the traditional blouse with embroidery on the shoulder (altiță)—an element of cultural identity of Romania and the Republic of Moldova—in its patrimony of the Intangible Cultural Heritage.
