    Marta Skoczeń artiste photographe art instax

    Water and light is about a very specific moment of the year between winter and spring, when the snow turns into water under the slowly upcoming heat of the sun. One can feel a humid, fleeting but intense smell of nature waking up, and this atmosphere is what I’m trying to capture. Having already played with text and moving image in Outdoors, a found footage video, I combine poems with instant photographs, searching for visual and sensual links.

    POEMS & PHOTOGRAPHS IN PROGRESS

    Blue letters
    snow is white sugar
    melting under the spring sun
    recalling the warm flavour of tea and milk
    breathing itself in and out through a window’s broken glass

    Forenoon
    a man eating a sandwich from his coworker
    with a subtle three floor chin and a strikingly real, comforting smell of freshly washed, rigid clothes
    and a car driver scrolling on his phone and avidly smoking a cigarette (so proud of his car not moving)
    — all bathed in sun, scared by the perspective of war.

    Apples
    Fresh, cosy September sun and first day at school.

    Blocks
    in the suburban area
    men put wooden panels in blocks one next to another
    their organic yet artificial smell makes some aired space
    for everyone who passes by

    Sulky days
    a male breath
    and a buzzing of a fly
    some red colour plates suddenly becoming walls of my rooms

    but also

    cold morning atmosphere of a warm day at school
    space, breathing, calm and a tender blue afternoon, and a sweet hug
    I think it's around five pm, twentieth of September

    as I grip my phone to turn off the alarm clock, all the letters are upside down, but I can still perfectly read all the words

    Three passers-by
    When I'm at my parents' place, I can sometimes hear people passing outside the window. Their steps resonate with an empty street and reach my ears despite the double glazing. I imagine who those people are.

    1. Wet footprints of damp block heels.
    The business woman I fantazied of as a 10-year-old, trying to imitate the "wet damp effect" with my mother's shoes on a 1 square meter balcony. Today, she might also carry a briefcase with a laptop (out of my childish cloth map).
    2. Both bored and curious voice of an adult man explaining what coffee is to his little son.
    It also seems like a mandatory adult accessory; coffee on the go. He says it's this kind of a drink.
    3. Irregular sounds of trolley bag wheels, the sound is being cut by the gaps in paving stones.
    The person is heading somewhere, and their travel is contrasting with the others' everyday rythm of work.
