Photography is of interest to me as a medium of recording space and time. I see it as a three dimensional phenomenon which enters in the dialogue with sculpture. Works which I create derive from the need to return to the issues concerned with the materiality of photography and formal explorations related to it. Photography is not an aim and final goal in itself. I take it as a medium of expression rather than a technological factor. What draws my attention and evokes my interest is the possibility to bring works of art whose physical language comes from the field of photography, but its full shape does not solely end with its print. Fields that attract my attention are oriented around objects and installations. As tools of artistic expression they allow me to materialize visions and imagination, influence on the atmosphere and energy of created works.
I have shown my works in The Royal Academy in London, Los Angeles Center of Photography, Antenna Gallery in New Orlean, Gallery 21 in Budapest, Zero Gallery in Berlin, Laba Gallery in Brescia, Imaginarium in Lodz, BWA in Kielce and BWA in Wroclaw. I have taken part in many festivals, among them: Loch Camera Festival in Iserlohn, Lodz Fotofestival, Art and Documentation Festival in Lodz, TiFF in Wroclaw
