📖 About the Program

In this artist talk and discussion, Marek Majewski will present his photobook Somnium and talk about the ideas and process behind the work. The project explores how images can evoke memories, dreams, and emotional states through sequencing and the physical form of the book. Marek will share how the project developed over time, from wandering and photographing to editing and building the rhythm of the book. The session will also open into a discussion about photobooks, self-publishing, and the role of intuition and experimentation in a photographic practice.

🎤 About the Artist

Marek Majewski

Marek Majewski is a photographer whose work explores memory, atmosphere, and inner landscapes through a slow and hands-on approach to image making. His practice is deeply connected to artisanal and experimental processes, where images are not only captured but also transformed through physical manipulation and printing techniques. He is particularly interested in how photographs evolve through different stages, from the initial image to the final form within a book. Through this process, his work seeks to create quiet spaces that feel suspended between dream, memory, and imagination.
