About Piotr Pietrus
Piotr Pietrus is a Polish-born photographer who has lived in many different countries and is now based in Berlin. Guided by a search for ephemeral flashes in our fast-paced life he’s collecting images, that once combined, create their own narrative; a visual atlas of some sort of magic that is quietly moving just below the surface.

'When I was a child, I often traveled to the old past in my dreams, to those days, that are gone for good, thus impossible to experience. All that was left was to imagine. As a photographer, I became interested in looking for peculiar wormholes, the parallel worlds, societies, where time and history seemed to be frozen. From this point of view, I explore local territories and find it exciting when the past, fairy tales or myths suddenly come up through the surface of well-known reality.'
