I wanted to express the deep connection between human and nature. The calm, peace and silence.

Great artwork should touch the innermost human´s feelings, catch him so, that there is only he and the work and nothing else exists. This is my main goal during creation of my photographs. You can´t usually see faces of people in my photographs. It is the way to achieve, that you can better identify yourself with stories in my photographs. I want to express a wide range of people´s emotions. From calm and joy to pain and strange indefinite feeling which everybody has sometimes. Feelings from everyday life as well as feelings from night dreaming or nightmares.
