STATEMENT:

Probably I don't know exactly what to say about my statement. I like to be serious and from another side like to escape the banalities; like to explain many details, but like to be correct.
In quite far 1972 year 'Farewell Photography' book by Daido Moriyama was published. The same year I was born. The fact photography can't tell something new from my birthdate has meaning to me that it became classic art already, like theater for example; and, as usual, there are two sides of this: black and white; positive and negative.
I understand the photography as philosophic and relativistic art due to it's visual result is strongly depend on forth coordinate: time. Changing the material sensitivity and time exposure we can collect the data about surroundings with another scale than our eyes do. The works of most influential landscape photographer of our time Michel Kenna are much more about time study for me than about landscape vision.

My personal photographic territory is small and quiet I guess but I'm lucky to have it. It is important side of stay myself, to breath in my own tempo. It is the practice of vision, some kind of duty: duty of Vision, if possible; and not about deep thinking or creating new worlds or attractive envelope for these worlds.
I try to keep photographs as raw as possible without post-processing and from other side prefer to make photography in conditions where result will be rather not clear, than normal scenes which are easy to find in any camera's guide or instruction manual. But I don't like to say it is experimental, because I don't use any instruments for that, just camera and my feelings.
