Records of Existence

About

photo series, 2021

This series presents the chosen fragments of The Karkonosze National Park in Poland. The sense of investigation is being created by the mutual technique of flash light, no perspective, enhanced detail, common gamut of colours, no horizon and closed composition. The specific elements are clues of some past events that caused the site’s current appearance.

These freeze-frames capture the clear signs of some presence. The need to find the creator is the main purpose of this photo series.

The paradox happens because the photos were meant to stay untouched, without any human interference to the environment. However, these segments have been specifically chosen, separated from the other parts of the woods. This highlights the interference of the human aesthetics, determinism, mindset and will.
