The Bedroom Window
The space under the Troja Bridge in Prague, Czech Republic, had a permanent summer resident - a homeless man, whose bed is poor and makeshift, but when he wakes up, he can look out of the huge "bridge window" towards the river.
I´m a self-taugh photographer originally from the Pilsen region (West of the Czech Republic), now living in Dobrichovice near Prague. I have been involved in photography since childhood, first only with B&W and home-made photos, later with color and infrared pictures. I have been exhibiting publicly since 2013. I try to make visible what is often not seen at first glance, so called “pictures from behind-the-light”. In the last three years, my photographs have been shown at joint international exhibitions and in foreign photographic magazines.
