When photographying, I search for places that would take me back in time or to a fairy-tale universes. To the landscapes with wild, untouched nature, and places where time had stopped. In my creative work I focus on popularizing places that have historical and cultural value, as well as little knonwn sites. I also strive to awaken concern for nature and the common landscape, including architecture.
The most important photographic interests: post-industrial landscape, modernist architecture, abandoned places, all embodiments of nature, Kłodzko land.
