When we are going to visit and see a place or a person we don’t know, we usually imagine how they look. This thought is exactly the opposite to recalling a certain place/person in a certain time.
Five photographs (Reflection II, Traveling to L.) show different moments in an imaginary trip to participate in an international conference, which, in this case, is the Art Biennale in Lodz.
As we all know, the reality usually turns out totally different, although the images of the imagination an the reality overlap after a while somehow in subtle ways.
