Mariusz Ratka Gallery 2022

MARIUSZ RATKA

Life can seem so fragmented and disordered at times. These images attempt to explore the idea of mental health and that we all have multiple identities. My images show, as a species we are always flying around and can never rest; hence the aeroplane and bench photographs.

I have included a self-portrait, this is how I see myself, part artist, part photographer and also in a way disembodied. I’ve used photoshop to create these images, using multiple layers to build on the original shot and create a story of daily activities people may go through and also to represent myself as said previously part artist and part photographer.
