About The Artwork

The photo comes from the cycle entitled ”Space ship”. These are digital photographs, devoid of context place. Karolina Jablonska — art critic — wrote about my recent works: ”By manipulating the image Sołtysik deprives photography of the potential to objectively record reality. However, he does not interfere with the image, but clears it of personal contents, as is the case with ”Selfie” and ”Abstractions”, or of actual fragments, as in the series ”Space ship”. Hence, by masking one element in the series ”Selfie” and ”Space ship” and nothing more than that he achieves the effect of an image of a reality other than the recorded one. In the ”Negatives”, then, he achieves a similar impression by displaying close-ups of fragments of pictures from the beach. With these simple treatments the real world fixed in the pictures becomes an illustration of a disparate reality imagined in the brain of the viewer. Even though he puts the audience in front of his transformed photographs - purporting to be a family album – in the role of passive viewers with no option of entering their own commentary, nevertheless the images presented by the artist help them to create a new alternative world which at times approximates virtual reality.” — excerpt from text „At the Back of My Head”, 2015.
