Here are some samples of my latest Salt Prints - They are printed using printmaking papers coated in a salt solution, and then activated with Silver. The prints are exposed with UV light or sunlight.

FOLKTALES & LEGENDS An Exhibition Without Borders
FOLKTALES & LEGENDS
An Exhibition Without Borders
An Exhibition Without Borders
Over the last few years, I have been inspired by my family's connection to former Czechoslovakia. I am Czech & Slovak - of both nations. Czechoslovakia has not existed since Slovakia became its own nation in 1993. Even though these places have different languages, cultures, and identities, they are forever in my life intertwined.
On a bicycle tour through Eastern Slovakia, I fell in love with the flora, and the wooden architecture.
I was amazed by the loudspeakers, which from times before were made to announce news and events.
During our bike ride, polkas emerged from the speakers.
