The birth of an auteur collective dedicated to a sensitive inventory of the world, where the rigor of visual storytelling honors the standards of historical foundations.

A Nursing Home in Prague 3 provides a safe environment, professional care, and a true sense of home for seniors who are no longer fully self-sufficient. In later life, it is especially important to stay connected with others, nurture relationships, and find meaning in everyday moments. For this reason, caregivers and nursing staff create a stimulating and welcoming atmosphere through a wide range of shared activities - from social gatherings with music and dance, to meetings with children, educational programs, physical exercise, and simple moments of shared joy and entertainment.

Going Places is a photographic series that explores individuality within the flow of public space. Each work is constructed from multiple photographs taken at the same location. Passersby are photographed individually against a fixed background and later assembled into a continuous strip, creating an invented procession of movement. Although the figures appear to share the same moment and direction, each person was captured separately—walking through their own private narrative.

This series observes the physical and quiet discipline of winter sake brewing. I focus not on the finished product, but on the gestures, processes, and sincerity behind them.

For me, Christmas has always seemed like the time of the year when making photographic imagery takes a holiday. Perhaps it's the dark or just the over-the-top schmaltz that had put me off. It wasn't until I began to appreciate the humorous oddities of the season that I began to see what is so easy to overlook.

''The Garden of My Tenderness'' is a personal reflection on vulnerability, inner growth, and the quiet strength that exists within sensitivity. The series was born in winter - a season when the world feels stripped back, and the longing for warmth, flowers, and tenderness becomes especially acute. It is within this contrast between external cold and inner need that the garden began to take shape.

As an artist, I am inspired by the memories and objects that connect me to my past. "My Father's Toys" is a deeply personal project that explores the cherished wind-up tin toys from my father's collection that played such a significant role in my childhood.
