AUTHOR’S PHOTOGRAPHS INSPIRED BY THE PAINTINGS OF EDGAR DEGAS AND THE ATMOSPHERE OF 19TH-CENTURY BALLET HALLS
Fine art black-and-white photographs of ballet dancers, captured on medium-format film with exceptionally fine grain, retain sharp detail and subtle image quality even at large sizes.
A classic black-and-white gelatin silver print is made by hand in the darkroom through direct optical enlargement from a film negative.
A large-format canvas print creates a striking focal point in an interior and works equally well in both modern and traditional spaces.
The open edition is the most affordable way to acquire an original black-and-white fine art photograph of ballet dancers. The photographs are printed with pigment inks on high-quality matte paper, with particular attention paid to the quality of the finished print.
My photographs require time, calm, and focus—they cannot be fully understood at first glance. One must absorb the whole and perceive the subtle details that often remain hidden. What is essential reveals itself gradually, through looking and quiet observation—just like time captured in every frame.
In my imagination, I create and capture on film images of worlds that have long since vanished. They were certainly not perfect, but they had their own beauty and poetry that disappeared with them.
