Michal rarely plans her photographs in advance, they are a product of how she processes reality. Looking back on the images she's created thus far, Michal realized that subconsciously, she has been photographing different elements from her childhood. Her pictures hold memories filled with curiosity, innocence, and wonder. They are a reminder of her as a child, wandering through the colorful fruit trees, in her small home town .
Michal likes to explore different types of methods to present her work, one of them being the diptych. By placing two of her images next to each other, she is able to influence the viewer's understanding of her images. As we grow, the memories from our childhood change with us, and by pairing each photograph with another, Michal provides us with a clue of the meaning behind her work, and a trace of how she remembers her childhood today.
