In White, Blue, Red – a photographic trilogy
DESCRIPTION
The project In White, Blue, Red features dozens of photographs. It consists of three parts inspired by Krzysztof Kieslowski’s film trilogy. The three colours are just a visualisation of emotions, with no reference to the slogan of the French Revolution. Still, liberty as evoked by Kieslowski is a prominent motif throughout the cycle.
The space of the apartment where the project takes place becomes a pretext to show human life. Based on day-to-day images, a psychological rather than aesthetic portrait of the subject is created. It is a testimony of its transience and an attempt to capture its feelings and described it emotionally through colour.
TECHNIQUE
The first part of the project, In White, makes use of traditional black-and-white photography. The next two parts of the trilogy have colours to emphasize fairly strongly the structure and condition of the subject. The project is a personal recording of states and emotions over the years 2014-2017.
The project has been done in traditional technique using colour and black-and-white negatives, size 6/7 cm.
