Inez Baturo (b. 1966, Bielsko-Biała, Poland) Landscape
There is enough horror, human stupidity, violence, indifference... in the surrounding world. Nature may be an escape.
I find in landscape remnants of freedom, kindness, harmony, and beauty, which people do not esteem nowadays but which they anyway seem to lack. I want to say, aware that it is not popular nowadays, that we should cherish for life and beauty.
Landscape gives a chance to show emotions above details. It is a measure of sensibility, and the art of seeing. The concrete is transformed into the general, colour is diffused and unreal.
But I do not mean to show the outer world only. Photographing landscape I represent myself. It is my portrait.
