Besides his art photography you can also find a selection of wedding photographs in his portfolio. The main part in his photography plays the human. Mainly he focuses on portraits. His photographs are specific for unique emotions and atmosphere. He brings thought and moods to his photographs which he always shows in unclear imagination so the viewer must think about the message of the photography. His most famous projects are Dream series and Poems series, which were published in many magazines and prized in Slovakia as well as abroad. At the moment he is working on his Poems series, which combines art with art. Each photograph has its own little story shown through a metaphor. The photographs in this series are completed by a unique poem written by Slovak poets. By viewing Michal’s photographs you find yourself thinking about the realness of the photography and about the postprocess. Most of the photographs are prepared on scene – not photoshoped.
