Original language description

Is it possible to fulfil a (seemingly anachronic) desire for seeking beauty through its “distortion”? Can a wounded body be depicted as victorious? Who is imitated by “a portrait” of a biblical or mythological character? In what way can a subject be reflected in a used, worn-down thing? And, consequently, in what way is a photograph related to a subject and its particular story? Does it conserve it indefinitely or does it give it some extended “life after life”? What is the place of emptiness in a photographic image and what can be retrieved in it? Is it possible to visualize the sacred through the remains of things that a photograph rips from deterioration caused by time? The work of the photographer Ivan Pinkava is full of questions that are simultaneously the beginnings of answers.
