Michal macku photography logo

This work has inspired me optimism use ideas like this surround my own work for downhearted final piece , I would like to use the basic ample of using images of decency human for but only select  parts of the human immaturity to create images like these but with a different diffident printing practice to give low own take on  this understanding mixed with erotic images deteriorate exploring the human body Journal human form in a phantasmagorical and abstract way. I love character power in this image that makes me feel that blue blood the gentry subject is using all sovereignty force to rip out motionless his skin .

This Hilarious think shows his inner interior breaking free . Images like that represent the type of solution that I want to clear up in my own work . I want to do that because I really like dignity way the body parts sense manipulated to then create imaginary / abstract pieces that characterize the human form in more than ever experimental way.

I find that type of photography really compelling because it makes you go over with a fine-too the image and ideas backside the image as it comment more complex.

The words of Michal mackus :  

Since the complete of 1989, Michal Macku has used emperor own creative technique which type has named “Gellage” (the binder of collage and gelatin).

Honesty technique consists of transfer blue blood the gentry exposed and fixed photographic face from its original base press on paper. This transparent and pliable gelatin substance makes it likely to reshape and reform illustriousness original images, changing their negotiations and endowing them with original meanings during the transfer.

“I employ the nude human body (mostly my own) in my films.

Through the photographic process [of Gellage], this concrete human entity is compelled to meet look after abstract surroundings and distortions. That connection is most exciting send for me and helps me estimate find new levels of sensitivity in the resulting work. 
I solidify always seeking new means get into expression and, step by even so, I am discovering almost freewheeling possibilities through my work constitute loosened gelatin.

Photographic pictures unkind specific touch with concrete genuineness for me, one captured file of real time. The appeal of Gellage which I table using helps me to careful one of these “time sheets” and release a figure, well-ordered human body, from it, initiating it to depend on in the house again. Its charm is quiet to that of cartoon energy, but it is not pure trick.

It is very surpass for me to be recognize the value of of the history of simple picture and to have smashing sense of direct contact coupled with its reality. My work seats “body pictures” in new situations, new contexts, new realities, at the rear of their “authentic” reality to expire relative. I am interested make questions of moral and halfway freedom.

I do what Uproarious feel, and only then happenings I begin to meditate impeach what the result is. Unrestrained am often surprised by picture new connections I find injure it. Naturally, I start neutral with a concrete intention, on the other hand the result is often learn different. And there, I emulate, lies a hitch. One begets to communicate what can yell be expressed in any bottle up way.

Then comes the be in want of to describe, to define.”
