This picture is taken by my first film camera which my dad gave me to play when I was really young. By the time I recognized that this camera is something more than just a toy… I started to taking pictures, quite random and without any visions, specifics ideas. I think by this time I found something still not improved in myself – love to photography. This period in my life it was just practice. How to see objects by the camera. Then, when digital cameras came I started to be more serious with my surrounding . But from technical way it was much easier and much cheaper that film camera – which was always with me…
All things with I love.
For my summer project I had to take a self portrait. Most of the people thinks that portrait is just an image of the face… But portrait is much, much more.
Obviously I’m in the picture, but you can’t see my face because it’s stick to camera, with obviously means that there is some relationship between the person and the object.
Anyway picture looks so messy, but all objects have some meaning – some of them are more personal some less but still they’re important.
I wanted to show by this picture part of my inside. My obsession about shoes. My adoration to old stuff, such a my grandparents gramophone. My addictions – cigarettes and coke. And basic one – my love to photography.
In this picture person – me – is not dress at all. But anyway is dressed so weird because which normal person is wearing pants, t-shirt and winter hat? Basically this outfit have some meaning as well. From the top – winter hat means that I quite like cold. Cold is for winter; and winter is for winter sports, which I adore.
Then t-shirt, which means comfort, I really don’t like formal clothes (even I’m wearing them I find it so uncomfortable. Also I’m just a master with making myself dirty, so I really difficult for me to stay fresh and clean in that kind of clothes. In casual ones I don’t care at all.)
Finally pants and naked legs. Is about acts. I think it says by itself…
