Animaly series

A visit to the Wroclaw, Poland, zoo is the inspiration for the series Animalies. These digitally produced images, excellently composed, juxtapose zoo creatures with strange symbols and props. Krzysztof is a social and political critic. Wladykaโ€™s Animaly might even be viewed as the art of protest. He opines:

“In these days (when the money is more important than the soulโ€™s needs) everybody can identify with the characters from my photos. They might create a moment of reflection and a simple question about the essence of our lives and basic values.”

In response to the question โ€œWhat is the secret to a good picture?โ€ Krzysztof answers:

“In its simplicity โ€ฆ the emotions it evokes. I confess that photography is not related to seeing, but with feeling. If you do not feel anything in that which you are seeing, youโ€™ll fail to make people look at your picturesโ€ฆ. โ€

He continues,

“The secret to a good picture is look, look, think, feelโ€ฆ.”
