The presented works are part of a large project consisting of 23 photos.
Created by photographer Roman Butym and Pavlo Kyryk, retoucher of the National Museum in Krakow.
For three months we went to the city dumps and took photos. At first without a specific purpose, but rather for fun. Later, they began to create harmonious compositions from garbage. In the end, each shoot turned into a performance.
One may see in this photo project a concern about the one-time nature of our things and how it affects the environment. Someone else will consider the issue of homeless people. Someone else is thinking about the existential emptiness of capitalism. And there will be those who just see a fool in the dump.
