David Těšínský is an independent photographer of human stories, subcultures, social documentary and art. His main goal is to open people's eyes and break stereotypes. David Těšínský's focus is on the people, and the people's stories that remain hidden. His images appeal to our humanity and remind us of the challenges of our time. The world is captured here in all its fragility, but usually with at least a whiff of hope; just a different kind of beauty, in the chaos of everyday life and the state of emergency.
The exhibition's festive opening will be held on 6 February at 7 PM at Bezdna Gallery in the artist's presence.
