The City in Motion
The regular and dynamic transformations of the city of Bratislava and its "uncontrolled" chaos became the basis of my long-term photographic interest. I
perceive my photographic work as a guide to Bratislava, where I try to show the
dominant and superior structural details of the space around me using visual
components, that make up the urban space itself. Bratislava is a multi-purpose and
multi-layered place, where spaces and spaces designed for professional or
recreational sports are very atypical. Here, as part of the investigation of these parts
of the spaces intended for sports, one gets lost in their monumentality and moves
arbitrarily in a chaotic direction. By focusing on the diverse spaces and buildings for
sports in Bratislava, I can provide a visual report of the relationship of both the city
and individual institutions to this issue, but at the same time I can also reveal the
relationship of citizens to sports. With the help of my visual perception, the photo
should transport the viewer into the atmosphere of specific sports spaces as part of
their transformations, reconstruction, but also into the atmosphere of faded glory
waiting for new opportunities. I want to be an observing photographer, not to criticize,
but to follow the events and the mutual relationship of the city and the individual to
the sports facilities.
