States of Mind

Passion. Intuition. Introspection. Meditation. Realization. Peace. These words describe the feelings I have when I create my photographs. The work on States of Mind series was spontaneous, intuitive and often almost unconscious, so it was very liberating. My motivation was curiosity and pure pleasure of creating motives "out of nothing", i.e. from the water, paint and other liquids that came under my hand. I used a small glass bowl, and a natural light from the window and the light of a table lamp. It is important to state that no post processing was used for creating these images. I used Photoshop only to transfer photos from the raw format. The „Worlds“ you see in these photographs existed only a short time… and then gone forever. For me those photographs are much more than an abstract expression of colors and shapes, they are my journey into freedom, an open flow of pure ideas. They represent a search for broader spaces, wider horizons, and a proof that even between the four walls of your room you could travel far with your imagination.
