KACPER KOWALSKI: A DIFFERENT PERSPECTIVE

  • 16 Apr — 27 Jun 20

A couple of years ago we have started representing a young Polish photographer whose work we fell instantly in love with: Kacper Kowalski. There is one very peculiar thing about Kacper’s photographic practice: it’s really not about photography. Kacper is a pilot and an compulsive flyer. He flies the skies of his native Poland and becomes one with the world around him. As a side effect, he started taking pictures of it. 

Kacper flies almost every day either on a paraglider or on a gyrocopter, above natural and industrial landscapes; walls and fences are no barriers to him as he roams remote places of complete solitude and silence. From 150 meters above the ground level, he discovers a serene world of shapes and colour that he turns into abstract images.

“Through horizonless fog I move instinctively from one shape to the next. I plunge deeper and deeper until all that remains is  the Here and the Now, within which I meditate.”

Recording these moments through photographs allows him to prolong the meditative experience of flying, and to share it with the rest of us who remain on the ground.
