Work from the Fallen Angels Collection
Few photographic series manage to express as effectively the weight of deep personal suffering and the grandeur of artistic transcendence as Jaroslav Wieczorkiewicz's. This collection of evocative works is situated at the crossroads of fine arts, mythology, and high-speed photography, constructing a visual language that speaks of grief, trauma, and the resilience of the human spirit.
Rooted in the artist's deeply personal experiences – witnessing his mother's battle with cancer, the loss of his father to depression, and the devastation of a miscarriage, all within the span of a single year – this work is not merely a photographic exercise but a visceral act of catharsis. Each image becomes a manifestation of pain made tangible, a way to externalize inner fractures while inviting the viewer to confront their own narratives of loss.
Wieczorkiewicz does not seek to glorify suffering, but rather to sculpt its essence into form, capturing both its violence and its persistent presence. His preferred technique – meticulously photographing liquids in motion – plays a particularly symbolic role in this series. The fluid and ephemeral wings of his celestial figures, composed of splashes of milk and paint frozen in time, embody the precarious balance between celestial purity and human fragility. The result is a striking duality: weightlessness and agitation, transcendence and collapse.
Technically speaking, this is an ambitious feat. Wieczorkiewicz uses a combination of high-speed photography and advanced digital compositing, layering dozens, sometimes hundreds, of images to construct each final composition. The meticulous process underscores his mastery of precision and storytelling, ensuring that every droplet, every frozen movement, contributes to the overall emotional and visual impact.
More than an aesthetic spectacle, it is a meditation on resilience. These figures, caught between flight and descent, illustrate the profound human experience of carrying one's scars forward, seeking light even amidst an engulfing darkness. Through his unique fusion of technique and emotion, Wieczorkiewicz creates a visual elegy that endures, resonates, and redefines the boundaries of contemporary art photography.
Celebrated for his originality and technical ingenuity, he solidifies Wieczorkiewicz's place as a pioneer of liquid photography, reaffirming his ability to transform the ephemeral into the eternal.
This fascinating work features two ethereal figures, sculpted with striking precision in a liquid-like material. The male figure, kneeling with power and vulnerability, reaches out towards a female figure in full flight, appearing to float with grace. The splashes and fluid transitions between shapes suggest constant movement, a dance between materiality and evanescence. The anatomical details of the characters are remarkably fine, capturing the nuances of the human body as they partially dissolve into the dark background. The interaction between the two figures symbolizes a deep and mystical connection, evoking themes of duality and transformation. This work transcends the traditional boundaries of sculpture, combining the visual effect of liquid with human forms to create a captivating and unprecedented visual experience.

Presentation
Jaroslav Wieczorkiewicz (1980) is a London-based photographer and artist renowned for his innovative and visually stunning photography. He is best known for his liquid photography work, where he uses real liquids like milk, water, and paint to create dynamic and surreal effects. His most famous projects often feature models wearing "liquid dresses," which are meticulously crafted by capturing the liquid in motion and compositing multiple images into a single, flawless visual.
Jaroslav, has background in Fine Arts, degree in Architecture, and wide array of experience. He is the founder of AurumLight Studio, a creative group specialising in high-speed photography and commercial projects. His work combines technical precision with artistic vision, and he frequently conducts workshops to teach his unique techniques to other photographers.
One of his standout projects is the Milky Pin-Ups series, where he recreated classic pin-up art styles by designing outfits entirely out of splashing milk, showcasing his mastery of both photography and digital compositing.
His work has gained international acclaim and has been featured in various magazines, exhibitions, and advertising campaigns. He continues to push the boundaries of photography, blending creativity with technical expertise.
