I am a part time civil engineer and commercial photographer from Belarus.

07.5.2012 Vernissage of “Distant Place” at the Copernicus Science Centre in Warsaw.

Warsaw, the Vistula River. I photographed a process without which life in the city would be impossible. We draw water from beneath the Vistula and return it to the river. These places are seldom seen. It is the machinery of the river which we try to conceal and not to look at. It’s a mysterious […]

There is a wild forest in the center of Warsaw. Together with the Vistula, it divides the city into two parts. It looks like a no-man’s land. But just beyond the first line of trees, there is a different world, opposed to city life.

Times have changed, and the golden era for people closely tied to the Vistula, like Bogdan, a push-boat mechanic, […]

The photographer doesn’t know too much about him, and neither […]
