Urban by Rafal Milach
I’m interested in reality. In reality, the most fascinating thing is fiction. I’m interested in sadness and big cities with small people. In a crowd, I look for emptiness. In complication, I look for simplicity. In deserted places, people interest me the most.
What is this essay about? If it was possible to frame feelings this work would be about that. Is it about people? In a way it is but people are absent in the pictures. It doesn’t concern the physical presence. They are isolated or cut from the surrounding space. They seem not to belong to the places they were caught. Is the essay about city? Only If you can see it in the people’s faces. Is it about loneliness? I think it’s something more complex than just loneliness or sadness. It’s more about the agreement that was made between man and the urban space he lives. I’m not sure if the city has dominated the people or vice versa. You can never say who is the winner. Does this essay answer any question? I doubt. It’s just like a eye blink. What can you see after you close the eyes? That’s what is all about.
