Lenka Jakubčáková | In seclusion

July 4 to September 4, 2011
The Olomouc Archdiocesan Museum | Café Amadeus

Photographic cycle in seclusion originated during two years as a focused document from the Slovak prisons in Sabinov and Prešov. In the document I have tried to penetrate the psychology and the soul portraits, I tried to express their feelings of separation, longing for family, the desire for freedom, but also their self-reflection, coherence and sense of humor. Most often presents a selection of 14 photos (symbolism of the cross in prison) represents condemned as icons prison through meditative portraits that should work timeless and universal.
