By watching the unfocused, shaken, and grainy nighttime pictures, the viewer is asking themselves whether they are looking into the eyes of an animal or is it a clever photographer\u2019s suggestion\u2026 Perhaps the recipient should retrieve their own experiences of the animal kingdom from their imagination or memories.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The counterpoint to these almost abstract pictures is the studio depictions of precisely illuminated animal skulls. They are repeated in the book like a chorus, inspiring the imagination with their specificity, but at the same time, provoking to compare humanistic and animalistic things. En plein-air the photographer sees less, moves slower, and leaves space for the coincidence. The control is regained in the workshop \u2013 then, connected with animals by experiencing the night together, he witnesses their death and is a \u201cshaman\u201d conducting the alternative burial ceremony. While portraying skulls and skeletons, he treats them with due respect.<\/p>\n<p>This book is an artistic object \u2013 the statement of three creators: photographer, text author, and graphic designer. Micha\u0142 Korta, the photographer, uses pictures to recount his vision of the relation between human and non-human entities. His story correlates with the poetic, impressionistic narrative of poet and prose writer Ma\u0142gorzata Lebda, living in the mountains of Beskid S\u0105decki and closely watching the crossover of the human and nature worlds. All is tied together by Kuba Sowi\u0144ski\u2019s design (in collaboration with Micha\u0142 Korta and Krzysiek Or\u0142owski). The photobook printed on heavy paper creates the conceptual pierce, pleasant-to-touch artwork open to interpretation in the post-humanistic debate.<\/p>\n<p>The book contains 48 pictures.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe Forest Bones\u201d text\u201d: Ma\u0142gorzata Lebda<\/p>\n<p>Editorial and graphic design: Kuba Sowi\u0144ski<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The photobook \u201eThe Shadow Line\u201d is a subjective story about animals, specifically about animal-human relationships in the times of post-humanism.
