The fruit of this perception is Faces of the City, the working title of a project in which Wojtek uses photography to tell the story of people who are part of the fabric of our lives. The idea is to create a book in which photos and text weave a narrative that connects their lives, hopes and dreams with our own. The aim is to change or enhance the social perspective of at least one person. "I believe that this world is more interesting when stripped from any conventional masks it is used to hide behind", says Wojtek.
The essence of his art resides not only in the most acute observation
of life but in painstaking attention to detail at every stage of the
creative process from composition to final print. In Wojtek's photography
the camera blends life, art and technology into a truly exciting body
of work.
Since he always carries his camera, he decided to use it as a tool in his every day communication with the world and create a simple photo diary of random things and situations he encounters during the day. If
