“It’s like riding a big rolling wave on the balls of your feet, from far out at sea, all the way to shore, and thrown hard on the beach. Then it’s nighttime and you’ve never seen so many stars and there’s people hiding in the treeline, but you can’t see them. That might be surprising.”

“Retired circus artist Mieczyslaw Grzebieniowski (77). He performed as rifleman. After finishing artistic career he worked as a teacher at circus school. He is already retired more than 20 years.”
“Circus city was built in the middle of Kampinoski National Park 30 km away from Warsaw. Due to financial problems, the center was closed almost 10 years ago. Huge area emptied. Circus city is slowly dying. I invited few retired circus artists to take their portraits at the place where some of them has been working for more than 30 years.”

“In 1976 I was born in Hohhot, Inner Mongolia. Lying on the north boarder of China, Inner Mongolia is the largest grazing region in China. On this land live Han and Mongolian people. My affection for my hometown made me reflect the land. Since January 2008, I started traveling and photographing in Inner Mongolia. After many travels I present you these pictures, which represent the real life of people living on the border.”

“Amateur actors from the local folk theatre ‘Czeladonka’ from Lubenka, near the border between Poland and Belarus. They perform scenes based on old customs and rituals, cultivated by generations. The actors are farmers, who work in the fields during the day, they only have evenings to work on their plays.
One show is often played by a whole family. Sometimes even three generations of actors take part in one performance. Staging takes place outdoors in different parts of the village. The audience follows the actors as they move with their stage. In the end, the actors together with the spectators join a feast.”
