title
The burden of life
I wanted to introduce the viewer to a state of reflection on the hardship of life and its constant burden.
The project was realized using the wet collodion technique. The collodion technique, with its organic imperfections, blurs and contrasts, gives the photographs a raw, slightly mystical character. Each photograph carries a story of both the physical presence of the ball and the emotional depth it represents.
These photographs (series is wider than allowed series quantity in this competition) are prepared in mixed fomat - circular and sqare 10inch glass.

entry description
"The burden of life" project is an artistic exploration of the symbolism of life's weight and existential struggle. In this narrative nudeart images the object placed in the foreground is a metaphor for our daily struggles, hardships and responsibilities. The ball that I used in the series of photographs embodies not only the physical burden, but also the invisible ballast that each of us carries in life.I wanted to introduce the viewer to a state of reflection on the hardship of life and its constant burden.
