This text will be about something other than exchange rates, which appears in my professional finance career from the beginning.
I believe that everyone in all societies participates in the eternal exchange process. Practically, each of us gives something to others and takes away something for ourselves. Personally, I do not only work in broadly defined Finance and pay taxes. Above all, I do street photography, write texts, prepare subsequent “Diaries'” editions, create sets of pictures like “Negation of the End” or “Ostensible Abstraction,” and manage the www.adammazek.com website. That’s what I want to give to other people, including future generations. Do I receive something from others? Of course, first of all, I earn money thanks to my professional job.
I receive many things regarding my passion, with positive words at the forefront.
I will stop writing about my professional career and focus on my passion. It’s not the case I receive applause from other humans. First of all, I received many inspiration and incentives from other creators. I would say that art is a broadly defined eternal dialogue and exchange with others. This dialogue and exchange of insights, ideas, and inspiration lasted practically from the very beginning of the world of art. I would say cave paintings, e.g., in Lascaux, somehow launched this dialogue and exchange. Each of us who creates something profound participates in all these things.
The eternal inflow and outflow of ideas within humans differentiate us from animals. While writing all these things, I started to wonder whether each of us is in the external process of exchange, even if one does not produce anything profound. I wrote this text on the 25th of November, 2022. It is 11 p.m., and the temperature outside is 1 degree Celsius (33,8 degrees Fahrenheit). I will go out to cold my body and exchange the air in my lungs with the cold one.
