Poland, Krakow

  • Photo Information
    • Title: "The Firebird"
    • Poland / Krakow / at the crossroads "Krakowska/J Dietla"
    • February 2024 / in the night
    • This intersection is located in Kazimierz, Krakow's historic Jewish quarter—once a cultural center, later the scene of extermination. The photo shows red traffic lights and waiting cars—a moment between movement and standstill. Here, red stands for both warning and hope: as a symbol of the “firebird,” an emblem of freedom. The photograph is reminiscent of the fragile boundary between past and present.

The aim is to surprise: place, time and light are real components. Each work is created in a single exposure as an abstract experimental composition. A special (unique) image of reality. Place and time are a primary element. Imagination and technology in symbiosis. No post-processing of the forms, everything is real.

The whole art of photography is to find the decisive moment.
