Ondřej Přibyl

Ondřej Přibyl

A fundamental figure in Czech non-figurative photography. For around fifteen years he has been studying objects in their real essence and dynamics, ascribing their visuality an entirely different meaning through his own lens. As time passes, the desire prevails in Přibyl to internally analyse relevance and he is fascinated by the properties and abilities of materials in hidden or marginal forms. What is more, he approaches this with immense precision and concentration, which is an authentic quantity that provides a sovereign guarantee over the whole itself.
