These are the families who have chosen to turn their backs on the breakneck speed of modern life to become at one with nature, free from the rat race.Leaving city life for mountain ranges including the Carpathians and The Pyrenees, they pride themselves on living 'off the grid' without access to any of the mod-cons that the 21st Century may have to offer.French photographer Antoine Bruy has spent years travelling across Europe capturing men, women and children who have joined the so-called 'back-to-land' movement on their very own organic farms.He said: 'Since 2010, I travelled throughout Europe to meet men and women who made the radical choice to live away from cities, willing to abandon their lifestyle based on performance, efficiency and consumption.'The people and places depicted in my pictures display various fates which I think, should not only be seen at a political level, but more importantly as daily and immediate experiences. These are in some ways, spontaneous responses to the societies these men and women have left behind.'In order build trust and gain a deeper understanding of his subjects, Mr Bruy said he signed up to a movement which links volunteers with organic farmers and then stayed with them, sometimes for months at a time.(dailymail.co.uk)Bakudaily.Az
