Zagreb “Noir City”
I love Zagreb City Nights, especially the moments when I can step into that parallel world where nights become mysterious and seductive.
The night is black, deep, and powerful, almost always threatening. It is a journey into a labyrinth of shadows and their various forms,
a moment when both physically and mentally our senses go beyond what our eyes see.
Whenever I enter this world of nocturnal wanderings, I take a deep breath because I never know what awaits me around the corner, whether I am entering an adventure.
In a special way, my night wanderings become journeys through my own dreams. While most city residents are asleep,
I transform into a Nocturnal Flâneur trying to extract the hidden part of the city.
Every night has a different taste; it has its magical aura, completely enveloping you, posing a challenge for me.
However, everything passes quickly, changes, like people and cities have their durations.
These photographs become a way to forever capture those fleeting moments because, after all, every city is an "ARTEFACT" - a witness to its own story that reveals its beauty shining in the dark corners of the "Noir night."
Zagreb "Nocturnal City"
Night, the city and me, alone. In some secret permeation.
The night in the city becomes seductive, it overwhelms me completely, it creeps under my skin, it seems to me that the city has a secret aura of its own ...
The night suggests, it stimulates the imagination and I always feel some nostalgia for the unknown, for the hidden…
My night wanderings around the city are always challenging, it opens up a range of possibilities as you explore and always discover something new.
I'm trying to show in photographs that invisible part of town, charm, the soul of the city, the time that will not be the same tomorrow.
Everything passes quickly, it changes, like people and cities have their duration…
This night series is my need to save the city from oblivion, to get it out of the night that already erases all traces in the morning.
Just like the fog that descends over the city and tries to make it invisible there I am with my camera immortalizing the images of the city for some other times and generations to come after us…
This is my first night series.
Here I explore city squares, parks, streets, stations, markets.
In other words my goal is to show the identity of Zagreb, the capital of the Republic Croatia, all its beauty and raise awareness of the value and importance of preserving its cultural heritage.
Zagreb "Nightlife"
The City like one big stage. Like a living whip, it pulsates.
Filled with secrets and charms.
A maze, filled with people, imbued with tremendous energy.
I want to peek into every corner of it, to capture that energy, i.e. the mood of the city at night.
The city is always in its own rhythm, there is a story in every corner, countless faces lost in their own worlds. I dive into the crowd.
I look at these worlds of theirs spontaneously, each individual has some personality of their own.
I observe people's faces, I look for their looks, I enter into the noise of those human voices, I come into contact with them, I feel their reality…
The curious look back.
Mystical ambiences in nightclubs, rattling glasses, all filled with smoke, seductive glances, hidden desires, intriguing conversations, intoxication with the moment…
All around me playfulness, joy, sadness, love, rattling glasses, the smell of cigarettes, the aroma of spilled bourbon, the smell of baked popcorn, a lonely woman in a corner, clothing styles… .fragments that testify to the life of a city and a time.
I am fascinated by so many different people, their behavior, thoughts and feelings, a series of such powerful yet fleeting moments.
I try to capture all this "emotion of the moment" with my camera, becoming a participant in that moment, because the camera captures the atmosphere of two worlds: the world inside you (the photographer) and the world outside you.
This series of photos is actually a story about the search for small microworlds that pass in flashes…
