///TICHÝ///

Miroslav Tichý: an inimitable talent.
Everything in his photographic process he created himself: the cameras, the editing, the photo frames.
He had a soft voyeuristic vision that gave way to seemingly metaphysical results; innocent, ghastly and divine.

"Photography is something concrete, a perception, what you see with your eyes. And it happens so fast that you may not see anything at all! To photograph is to paint with light! The flaws are part of it. That's what makes the poetry. And for that you need a bad camera. If you want to be famous, you have to be worse at something than everyone else in the world!"
