The exhibition brings together the author's archive that has developed over the past ten years, starting from the first steps of a professional career and fashion photography projects, to portraits and artworks with emphasized documentary elements. In doing so, as the title suggests, it uses the idea of acquisition and memory, remembrance and storage to underline the processes, both mental and computational, that are crucial in the creative creation and preservation of ideas and realized projects.
Greed, 2020, Filip Koludrović
Although known for his work in fashion photography, Koludrović regularly plays with contrasts between formal and spontaneous, and in this exhibition project presents his microcosms to the audience – collections of figures and characters, objects and themes. His style of photography is characterized by the play of light and shadow, strong contrasts, a focus on symmetry and structure, and serious facial expressions. He creates photographs through various experiments in balancing digital and analog, which is why his photo essays often go through different tools, techniques and processes – from photographs taken with a professional digital camera or mobile phone, to DIY scanning and printing techniques, and recently the use of AI tools.
