About the artwork

Janek Sedlár's photographic repertoire mostly comprises forest landscapes, each time emphasising the dark, spindly silhouette of the trees, whose foliage lights up the composition with its bright colour. His subjects are bathed in a misty, almost fantastical atmosphere, reworked in postproduction using Lightroom and Photoshop. They seem to evoke distant memories, not without a certain sense of melancholy. Although he appreciates the work of photographers such as Lars van de Goor or Alexandre Deschaumes, Janek Sedlár's main source of inspiration nonetheless remains his various excursions into nature, and particularly in the micro region known as Horácko, located in the heart of the White Carpathians mountain range, in South Moravia: "The hike in itself is one of the best ways of refreshing one's mind [...], it is better than any other kind of therapy. [...] Photography for me is a spiritual essence that can help me to change my state of mind."
