“Few years ago I was traveling on the tram in Zürich and I noticed a little shop full of camera equipment. The name of the shop was simply Dunkelkammer which means dark room. I found it really interesting because it’s just so simple and it sounds really nice in german. In 2006 when I signed in to ‘Szellemkép Szabadiskola’ school I studied analogue photography. From that period I spent years taking pictures with only that method and I did the blow-up by myself too. Later on I started to shoot with my digital camera and I used my analogue camera less frequently so I wasn’t able to collect a certain amount of those pictures for an exhibition. At the end of 2021 I started to use analogue technique again because I needed reality besides the online platform during the Covid period. For this exhibition I collected my analogue photographs. I chose some details from our surroundings and then I captured how the forms can transform them into geometric shapes. With this method the original detail creates a new reality. The main focus is how the place itself also the proportions can change different shapes and textures.”
