Hybrid Figures
Inspired by a vision of photographing a sculpted structure projected on a nude, we started working on a series of photographs depicting models ‘dressed’ in objects. The forms displayed on the body absorb it, the new growths deform it/redefine its shapes. The Hybrid Figures project is based on the collaboration between two media, which allows us to create a new context, both for the sculpture and for the photograph.

Przemek Dzienis (born 1984) – graduated from the National Film School in Lodz. He works mainly with portraiture and analyses the relation between the man and everyday items. Przemek Dzienis has also experimented with the notion of multiplication, with figures and objects and their activity in space. His photographs were shown at solo exhibitions in Budapest, Warsaw, Cracow, Lodz and Poznan. His artistic collaboration with Dorota Buczkowska resulted in a photographic series exploring the relation between sculptural installations and nature. Przemek Dzienis lives and works in Warsaw, Poland.
