Photography
My photographic practice focuses on long-term projects that combine archival photography, historical research, and documentary methods.
Drawing on materials from Polish archives and cultural institutions, the work of local photographers, and the collections of Yad Vashem in Jerusalem, I investigate the relationship between past and present through the dialogue between archival and contemporary images.
Many of my projects explore the complex history of Polish-Jewish relations, examining individual lives, local communities, and the traces left by displacement, loss, and remembrance.
Rather than documenting events, my work seeks to uncover overlooked stories and consider how photographs shape our understanding of memory, identity, and collective history. Presented in exhibitions, these projects encourage reflection on the enduring impact of history and the role of photography as both a historical document and an artistic medium.
