...Pawel Zak belongs to these photographers who with uncommon delicacy employ what old masters used to call the "light of the picture". His many times presented and awarded series of images called "Tales" is a meaningful example of the great visual culture of a artist, whose works entirely belong to the newest trends of contemporary photography. ...I was totally surprised when Pawel presented me his pictures of flowers. ...these are photographs that avoid words....whereas the child - like "Tales" tell us about development and about life, the flowers are silent about contradictory phenomena: About growing old, withering and in result about death, with which we familiarize in silence and loneliness. Pawel leads us also into other area of time that belong to chemical aspect of photography. He develops his prints in hours-long cycles each time achieving unrepeatable and unique result....
