Aleks Faust is an artist who works mainly with photography.
However, his practices lay far beyond just photographic images. Aleks
challenges creativity by experimenting with different media: printed
photographs, collages, applications, and paintings. These practices
allow him to look outside the box and create works based on spiritual
and intuitive ways.
Aleks is looking for inspiration everywhere around but also
inside. It is art painting and sculpture in particular that inspire him a
lot in his work. Aleks always has the camera on him. Constant practice
of seeing things through the viewfinder helps develop a vision and
creative skills.
Two core principles run through his work:
• the meditative practice of being present in the moment of
now. "It does not always work, but as in meditation, you
constantly return to the present from the flight in thoughts
and illusions, at that moment, something worthwhile is
born," says Aleks.
• The second is the practice of seeing things not only as a
user but as if he had never seen them before.
