The desire to visit Kintai art residency had been present since passing by it a few years ago. There was a strong feeling that it had to be done. The creative practice often relied on the hope for a happy accident. Arriving at Kintai, there was no clear idea of what exactly was going to be done. For quite a long time, there had been suffering from photographer\u2019s block. There was hope that being in Kintai, away from familiar surroundings, might provide a fresh impulse. It worked. Being there brought back a sense of magic in everyday things. There was a newfound desire to photograph the view from the window, the nearby road, and many other things. It felt meaningful and important.<\/p>\n
Another significant aspect was the desire to step away from professional activities practiced for years and dive into the mode of a happy amateur. Some drawings were made, featuring similar mundane subjects as in the photographs. Drawing was not a frequent activity, so the skills were quite limited. However, being in this novice mode brought fresh joy and a feeling of playfulness.<\/p>\n
Since analog photography is used, it takes some time and equipment to get a final image. So, for now, only the drawings can be shared.<\/p>\n
