PERSPECTIVES (2016-17)

Perspective - a particular attitude towards or way of regarding something; a point of view.

Seeing comes before words (...) It is seeing which establishes our place in the surrounding world.’ John Berger, ‘Ways of seeing’

Perception is an utterly subjective act. What you see is solely yours, concealed from anyone else. How you see exclusively depends on your senses. How you receive and process is hidden in the depths of your mind, impossible to share with anyone else.

Photography captures the perception of an individual and allows others to access it. It is an opportunity to look at the world through the eyes of someone else; an attempt to externalise the personal ways of seeing. It conveys colours, angels, places, moments exactly how the photographer has seen them.

Taking photos of the city is visually mapping its street corners, pavements, walls, windows and curbs. Through deconstructing and reconstructing the city, the photographer is not just an observer of urban life. In ‘Perspectives’, the role of the photographer was to redesign and rebuild the city through its details disdain by the ordinary passerbys.

In this series, the curious flâneur became a co-creator of the space, arranging the fragments of everyday metropolitan experience into an elaborate jigsaw.

‘Perspectives’ is about variations in ways of seeing in every sense of that term. Although Korobkiewicz’s extraordinary perception of the streets immortalised in the book controls what the viewer will see, how they see it is autonomous, granting them the freedom to incorporate their personal perspective into the book.
