Marcin Veron, "Passages."

Marcin Weron, "Mijanki" photography (photo artistic images) print on cvp 100x70cm board

Marcin Weron, Released into the world on Friday 1972. Poznan resident. Musicologist by education, production manager in the media industry by profession, homebody by habit. He has and uses a photographic camera, however, photography, as a branch of art, interests him moderately, with a tendency to virtually none. For him, it is only a medium that allows him to satisfy a compulsive need for creation; an artistic one, we might add, somewhat overstatement. He treats photographs as half-finished products for the creation of what he calls 'photo-images' (by calling them 'photographs' he arouses the amusing indignation of orthodox photographic purists), which are the result of shooting under the influence of a somewhat degenerate imagination and moderately skillful use of a computer photo-processor. He captures and creatively distorts (at least that's what he thinks) mainly himself, although for the past five years or so he has also been taking increasing pleasure in bullying strangers - mainly members of the non-repulsive sex. Hence the division of his virtual gallery into self-portraits and non-auto-portraits. He indulges in the above procedure exclusively in his almost-right-now-quasi-studio (called photonora) arranged in the drying room of the block of flats where he lives.
