Bine ai venit ….
Nici mie nu imi este clar de ce fac ceea ce fac, adica sa public niste poze.
O fac pentru ca pot, si pentru ca imi place.
Lumea in care traim este o lume frumoasa, si poate avem unele momente cand nu reusim sa vedem sau sa constientizam acest lucru. Arta fotografica ne poate ajuta sa ne recapatam optimismul, entuziasmul, si sa trecem dincolo de ceea ce poate parea o lume nu tocmai “roz”. Asta nu inseamna ca eu ceea ce fac se poate numi “arta” dar asta este o total alta discutie.

Pana una alta, daca e ceva neclar: nic[@]i-photo[.]ro.
Update 9 decembrie 2008:
The artist is the creator of beautiful things. To reveal art and conceal the artist is art’s aim.
Those who find ugly meanings in beautiful things are corrupt without being charming. This is a fault.
Those who find beautiful meanings in beautiful things are the cultivated. For these there is hope. They are the elect to whom beautiful things means only Beauty.
The moral life of man forms part of the subject-matter of the artist, but the morality of art consists in the perfect use of an imperfect medium. No artist desires to prove anything. Even things that are true can be proved.
No artist has ethical sympathies. An ethical sympathy in an artist is an unpardonable mannerism of style.
No artist is ever morbid. The artist can express everything.
Thought and language are to the artist instruments of an art. Vice and virtue are to the artist materials for an art.
All art is at once surface and symbol. Those who go beneath the surface do so at their peril. Those who read the symbol do so at their peril.
It is the spectator, and not life, that art really mirrors.
Diversity of opinion about a work of art shows that the work is new, complex, and vital.
When critics disagree the artist is in accord with himself.
We can forgive a man for making a useful thing as long as he does not admire it. The only excuse for making a useless thing is that one admires it intensely.
All art is quite useless.
- Oscar Wilde
