Dancing in Fire

I love the harmony of sand dunes created by Newton's laws of physics. When I make light float upon the harmonious lines of the dunes, a colorful stream of light transforms Newton’s ‘B&W’ laws into a new animate concept: a new space of colorful combinations and strong emotions ..., human abstractions develop on the inanimate mathematical abstraction.
When looking at this photo I see a fairy from magic woods dancing most elegant dance figures weightlessly throughout the whole night in the warm light of a cozy fire.

Marek and Magda have established a unique visual vocabulary by designing abstract artifacts. The duo creates and acts together as Boguszak, exhibiting and selling award-winning photography worldwide.

The pair created a body of work from their journeys in Death Valley and Abu Dhabi deserts. The Boguszak's sophisticated image processing highlights colorful shapes and pure lines with supreme harmony.

Boguszak have presented exhibitions at international venues in Zurich, Bern, Campione, London, Rome, Prague and New York.
