Honorable Mention
The velvety dawn I
DESCRIPTION
‘The Velvety Dawn’ series shows pictures of the River Medway in Rochester, in the UK. The photos were captured very early in the morning when the whole scene was drowned in an incredibly dense fog and filled with silence which enabled contempletation of nature. As an observer, I could record some elements of nature slowly appearing on the skyline which, at the first moment, resembled more an abstract image than a realistic view of the river.
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.
