the road to the unknown Collage

My name is Andrey Matsur. I am a photographer and I live in Belarus. I have never studied photography, but 15 years ago I suddenly saw how beautiful the world around us is. Moreover, it changes every moment. This moment is unique and unrepeatable. At that time, I recognized the need to learn to " stop these moments" in order to show this beauty to people. This is the essence of our life - to live in this beautiful moment "here and now". Every person's footprint, a gust of wind, the sunrise and sunset are inimitable, like unique a person's smile is, his reaction to the world around him, his gait, and even more, his mood. If such plots are worthy of the attention of the photographer, then there are also worthy of the attention of the viewer. At the same time, I am constantly trying to find myself, including in photography. Different stages of my life, emotions and moods definitely leave an imprint on my oeuvre. At times, looking at my photos, I begin to understand myself better, seeing my reflection in my frames. Of course, photography for me is a way to communicate with the world. In my photography, first of all, I myself, my fears, doubts and dreams Now, as a photographer, I am interested in the essence of subjects. In their variety I see interesting connections, their depth and uniqueness. These are color, lines, reflections, facture and much more. There is a story behind every scratch, every glare of light changes the essence of the perception of the object. Of course, I want to show this to people who unlikely pay attention to similar "little things" because of their busyness. At the same time, a lot of symbolism can be found in these objects, which takes place in our life.
