RALPH MILEWSKI
I photograph what I encounter. Not what I’m looking for.
I observe, repeat, discard. I don’t smooth things out.
My work emerges in motion – from movement, from stillness.
There is no plan. But there is direction.
I’m interested in people in space. Traces. Transitions.
I work with available light and reduce my tools as far as possible.
What remains when everything unnecessary is removed – that’s what matters.
I don’t believe in educational messages.
An image doesn’t have to explain. It should provoke something.
If it does, that’s enough.
The circumstances under which my images are created are inseparable from the work itself.
They shape the process – and the way the photographs are seen.
I believe in the strength of the image.
Not in the intention behind it.
And I don’t believe in the need to please.
