The City
The first subject of my portfolio is ´ the city´ . My intention was to present variety of possible or impossible looks of the cities. The pictures in sepia like colors were taken in artificial light while the black&white ones´ colors have been changed to grayscale in order to show the more natural hue. Every picture was made by pencil. The photos were taken by Konica

The fourth subject of my portfolio is ´ the border´ . That was the first design project during my studies at the Wroclaw University of Technology. The photos on the right side show some of my first sketches and the photos on the left present my first model. The main idea of the subject was to show metaphysical meaning of the Polish word `granica` which can mean ´ border´ , ´ utmost´ and other words in English

This was the second phase of my design project. My idea was to create the kind of a gate with moveable triangular doors. The last stage of the design process was ´ the border of ilumination´ . It was showing the mixed blue and red lights (the photo at the page no.6). The project was noticed as creative and satisfying the lecturers´ expectations.

This is the fourth subject of my portfolio. While taking photos I tried to show how the box can look like. I decided to take photos of transparent blue boxes as they can be presented in an attractive way.
What´s the Box Photography is one of my favorite ways of expressing myself. It is the kind of art which can both emphasise and cover up the reality. Maybe that is the reason why it is such a beautiful
