Identity is a thing to be created, not discovered. Personality is a motion, a constant flow. To adjust oneself to one label is to limit oneself. Gender and sexuality shall indicate preference, not to close one in the stiff form.
Seeking an identity means for the teenager changing an external appearance, dressing manner, personal relations, loves and authorities.
If we look deep enough, under the superficial colors and bravado of young people, we could perhaps find deep layers of vulnerability, fears, loneliness and suffering of lack an acceptation and support.
I am the Polish photographer based in Rzeszow, Poland. The photography is my passion and I am driven by believe that documentary photography beside being the source of information or knowledge should aim to be if not as much as world -changing, yet, hopefully, mind-changing medium.
As a photographer I am mainly focused on social issues. I often try to investigate and depict social injustice and try to look trough the eyes of those who lack social acceptance or struggle for establishing their place in society.
