Miroslav Tichy


The work of Tichy has recently been brought to my attention, he is a new 'find' of unknown artists working in the world photography. He became obsessed with the female form and photographed in streets, shops, parks and swimming pools with his home made cameras. He made his cameras from junk left on the street, just as I have made many of my cameras. His photographs hold an intimate and delicate feel which are magical, even though the photographs are presented in a rather casual way. However, I think this adds to the effect of this poetic intimacy.
