Photos, video, installation

(All photos of the series are simple photos of reflections, there is no Photoshop or something!!!)

"They live among the hard facts of life, reality, as it is called.It is the reality of a swamp and they are like frogs who have nothing better to do than to croak. The more they croak the more real life becomes". Henry Miller "Tropic of Cancer". So I "croaked" all the "swamp" photos of the series"

"It's hard to imagine what it can be like, this heaven that men dream about. A frog's heaven, no doubt. Miasma, scum, pond lilies, stagnant water. Sit on a lily-pad unmolested and croak all day .Something like that, I imagine" (Henry Miller "Tropic of Cancer)

"behold, the kingdom of God is within you" (Luke 17:20-21)
