gelatin silver print, 46 x 39 cm (52 x 45 cm),
signed, dated and described on the reverse and on the passe-partout,
unique print

The work comes from an open-ended, untitled series, which the author began in 2000. It is mainly made up of still lifes and landscapes composed in a minimalist fashion. The series is unique for the way it was printed. By exposing traditional silver bromide papers to a long-lasting process, the artist obtains a layer of spots, damp patches and irregularities - apart from the negative itself. The process is only controllable to a slight degree, which yields unique end results. Ultimately, after obtaining a satisfying print, the artist refrains from further reproduction of the same negative, with the original print becoming one of a kind.
The photograph has been displayed many times at the exhibition Sunflowers and Other Photographs, including in the Luksfera Gallery, Warsaw (2006) and Musée Henri-Martin, Cahors, France (2006).
