Dear Friends, as some of you have see, the below mentioned event is now official - the opening is on 16th January 2015 at 6pm in the gallery of Palach Club, so I would love to see some of you from Rijeka and around at the opening.
Following the exhibition, you will be able to attend three lectures held by appreciated historians of art and fashion, covering the topics of "Secession in everyday life", "Ceramics in secession of Rijeka" and "Fashion in time of Secession".

All photos from the exhibition will soon be in my gallery here (2 of them already are and one of them brought me my first Daily Deviation today!) :D

******************************************************************
It came the time to say it out loud - I will have my first solo exhibition in January! :joy:
I am not allowed to share images with you yet, but the name is of the same is "Secession from the Attic", representing my favorite period of history and my fascination with dark, forgotten and abandoned places and things.
The concept was shown through the series of photographs featuring human models (both male and female) acting as old porcelain dolls dressed in fashion from period of 1890-1910., "found" in old wooden closets and dark corners of attic.

The idea was built piece by piece, as I took a decision to definitively shoot people as vintage dolls as they always fascinated me so much. When I was thinking about the location, I've realised that my home is perfect place for the set because of it's very own dark corners. To make things better, the building where I live is a perfect example of Secession architecture, built in 1905. by a well known Austro - Hungarian architect  Giovanni Rubinich (Rijeka was a part of Austro - Hungarian Empire).
That way, I decided to show my appreciation for art, fashion, history, gloomy and forgotten places and love toward Rijeka through this photographic series.

I have to mention that I had a group of great enthusiastic models who helped me to build the scene, we made all of our costumes by ourselves and tried to re-enact the fashion of forgotten time as best as we knew and could :)

Stay tuned, because photos might arrive soon!

PS - I wouldn't be myself if photos weren't just a little bit gloomy ;) 

Love, 

Ceno
