From my Nanny's wall V
DESCRIPTION
Childhood memories of my Nanny's tapestry were inspiration for this series. Abstract compositions are a result of a combination of single photos which became modules to create symmetrical structure/pattern similar to ones found in tapestries. AUTHOR
I was born in Poland in 1980 and graduated from the University of Silesia with a Masters in Fine Arts in 2005. My main passion is painting and drawing but I have never lost my interest in the medium of photography, which in some sense, is an essential accomplishment of my artistic language.
I use my camera to transfer and materialise the emotions which develop in my mind, the excitement caused by encountered reality. Sometimes the photos can abstract from reality, showing different aspects of colours and forms, whereas other times they can simply reflect certain situations taking place in front of my camera.
