“Diversity of Thoughts”

I wanna show the diversity of human thoughts through my exhibition collection. Each of these photo will appear in your mind some emotion, some thought, some attitude to certain photo. These feelings could be widely different: delight, disgust Every human will have own one. I would like to highlight exact this difference between us and we should accept this feeling of another person. Everyone can feel what they feel.

Hello, my name is Kolya and I recently started to do photography. This is my second experience in participating in exhibition. The theme what i chose was “Colors”. I selected portrait style of photography because its attracts me the most. For my model i picked my sister. In photos i show how i view the color and how i am interpreting it into my pictures. I was inspired by surrealistic photographers and in particular David Uzochukwu. Thank you.

In my photo series, I explore the contrasts of day and night in Cluj Napoca through the lens of black-and-white street photography. Captured during the shift from autumn to winter, these images reflect the city's evolving mood as it kind of transitions between seasons. By focusing on light and shadow rather than color, I want you to experience the essence of each moment without distraction but ambiance. In daylight, the textures and shapes are more vibrant; at night, they transform, softened by the streetlights and shadows, revealing introspective side of the city. Rawness and timeless quality of each scene. Highlights of Cluj Napoca’s character as it moves through time…

*The World Through Her Eyes*

The woman on the photo invites us to see the world in a fresh way. Through her unique and artistic lens, she transforms the everyday scenes of city life into extraordinary works of beauty.

Her vision reminds us that every person experiences the world differently, shaped by their individual traits, their ability to find wonder in the ordinary, and their openness to the diversity of nature and life.

She inspires us to celebrate this richness of perspective and to develop our own ability to see beauty everywhere.

Take a moment to open your eyes wider and truly look around — beauty surrounds us everywhere. We are the creators of our own lives, and only we have the power to make them brighter, better, and filled with happiness.

Interpersonal relationships in an urban environment

It inspires me to watch the exchange of energies between people in the expanse of a city, and no matter how much energy and interference is nearby, they still maintain that one-of-a-kind connection. And whether I know these people or not, it always fascinates me.

A glimpse of light

In every dark corner of this world, there is always a glimpse of light. Even if it’s a real light or just a feeling we keep deeply in our heart. We sometimes feel lost and far from everything and everyone. In that moment we need to remember we need a light to bring us back and make us remember who we are and what we cherish, love, and value.

Veins of Green Blood

We say we hate nature but still have green blood. Just as blood runs through our veins, sap flows through trees and plants. Nature seeps into us in subconscious ways, it finds its way to us because, at our core, we are the same—lost twins. Even if, at first glance, all we have in common are just some simple splashes of green.

Title: "Summer Reminiscences – Usual Summer Things in the Colder Time of the Year"

This photographic series delves into the enigmatic essence of liminal spaces – those surreal, unsettling, and otherworldly locales that embody the transitional nature of liminality. Each image captures the haunting beauty of places typically bustling with summer activity, now rendered desolate and contemplative.

Through this collection, the artist evokes a poignant nostalgia for the warmth and vibrancy of summer, juxtaposed with the eerie stillness that descends upon these spaces as the seasons change. It is an exploration of time, memory, and the ephemeral nature of human presence, inviting viewers to reflect on the passage of seasons and the inevitable solitude that follows.

“God’s creation”

“Whenever the rainbow appears in the clouds, I will see it and remember the everlasting covenant between God and all living creatures of every kind on the earth.”
Genesis 9:16

And as the Bible also says, everything that was created by God on this Earth was very good.

So let’s notice the beauty around us, appreciate and protect the nature that surrounds us.
Goodness and care begins with You.

Feel the Moment, No Matter What Happens.
For a long time, I searched for a way to share my message with the world. I attended lectures, immersed myself in theory, and tried to craft compositions. Yet, in the end, my own hand revealed the answer: to convey the pure joy of the Soul through a single moment.
No matter the state of my spirit or the events unfolding around me, there is profound happiness in capturing beauty and passing it on — from one Soul to another. From Me to You.
The concept revolves around capturing the same place, at the same time of day, but under different states of nature and myself. :) Enjoy!

Thank you for this incredible project.
Regards,
Marina Miami (Yulia Okhina)

P.s. But even our lovely Black Sea can be strange, aggressive and dangerous. For everyone. In a Moment.
