About Me

CURRENT MISSION

change the world.

ABOUT ME

Right now it's about cinematography for me. Maybe it always, taking this images into real life, and expressing the emotions while catching the visible spectrum, translating light into stories.

I also love books, I used to live in them, and be friends with Winnetou, Captain's Grant children and Emily of New Moon. I am writing and reading poetry, I finished BA Comaparative Literature with the dissertation about modern Irish and Polish poetry.

PHILOSOPHY

Life is a journey, so why not smile to other voyagers.
And I believe in dusk and summer.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I was on top on Mt Blanc but it was foggy so didn't see that much. The most amazing thing I have seen ..
summer street
barefoot
in the middle of a big field. this blue sort of sky with clouds of heavy white texture. we are running to get the water, splash it on each other, and laugh till we ae out of breathe. everything smells of hay and berries.
And the feeling when I loaded Arri mag for the first time. ...
