Last time I was thinking about regularity. I believe consistency can be both a healing and a curse for all humans. As usual, it is only up to us how we ...

Numbers are both our savior and the curse (e.g., the lust for money).

I had some thoughts last time about perspectives for my nation. In one of my previous posts, I have already written that we, the Poles, probably never had such a ...

For most people, the symbol of freedom is a bird/pigeon. I do not argue with that. Nevertheless, the synonym for sovereignty is also the camera and sneakers.

Sometimes I wonder what people see in my pictures. Generally speaking: I think that they know what they want to see.

It was a sunny day in early spring, the beginning of April 2019. When I left the office to take pictures, I did not realize I would see a horror scene.

I have never experienced violence or an act of aggression in the streets of Warsaw, but I often wonder what I would do if someone attacked me physically.

Last time, during one of my strolls through Warsaw streets, I wondered about playing with death. One idea came to my mind.

I always try to do artistic photography. Nevertheless, it does not mean I am not doing documentary photography with my unique and specific creative approach.

Hard work is good, but only if you work on something you genuinely love.

I was writing this post on the 2nd of April 2019. The spring was knocking on our doors and windows here in Poland.

Since the very beginning of my economic studies, I was told that we should possess a perfect CV.

Most people run away from their gray, mundane reality into sports, traveling, or parties (with alcohol or drugs). They want to have fun and escape from the overwhelming reality.

Read! Good things will undoubtedly come out if good things get into your mind.

Some ask me, “What is the best outfit for street photography?” For me, the worse, the better.

I possess curiosity about the world. I am curious about almost every area of life.

I wrote this post one week before my 34th Birthday. During that time, I had thoughts regarding evanescence and my aging body.

Yesterday (8th of September 2019) was my first anniversary of working with Instagram. I’ve been on this social media platform for one year.

Thanks to photography, I have an incredible boost to life. Speaking shortly: I’ve got the power.

Last time, I had some thoughts regarding art restorers. I thought that these people must like their jobs. Also, I was wondering how their occupation will evolve in the long ...

Sometimes I feel that tragedy is an integral feature of my artistic activity. Why? Because I will never find out my Art’s effect on posterity.

Today I will write about another advantage of creating. Last time I was thinking about making art.

It was the 15th of March 2019. I did not know what I wanted to write. Thus, I decided to write about Daylight Saving Time.

I have already told it once and will say it many more times. I dream loudly. Today, I will stress that my dream is to become one of Warsaw’s symbols.

Last time, while watching Ireneusz Dobrowolski’s movie “Struggle: The Life and Lost Art of Szukalski,” I realized that there is one of the worst nightmares which can happen in the ...

Sometimes I wonder how it would be if knowledge gathered from all the humans, from throughout the whole history, would be centered in one man. Undoubtedly, we would call this ...

Last time I was thinking about my adolescence. The fact is that my youth occurred in the ’90s in Poland.

Today I will present my work called “The Wall.” Below you will find, my Dear Friend, a full set of photos with a description.

Dziś przedstawię swoją pracę o nazwie „Mur”. Poniżej znajdziesz, mój Drogi Przyjacielu, pełny zestaw zdjęć wraz z opisem.

All people possess both good habits and bad ones. I am not an exception. I also own both proper and improper patterns of behavior. 

The chorus of the famous Depeche Mode song “People are people” often echoes in my mind.

Last time, while wandering through the streets of Warsaw, I thought about when I began to take photographs during walks.

Sometimes I think about this world as a battle between one’s self-destruction vs. self-construction. Indeed, it is a battle between good and evil.

To write this post, I am inspired because the last time I read Taschen’s book about Piranesi.

Last time I had a thought that we should be local. Simultaneously we should think global.
