“Epitome” is a fairly personal visual journey — my attempt to look at some things more than once. It consists of pictures shot in war-torn places I was visiting in two subsequent years (2022–2023) and pictures printed from my archive of previous years. The process of making the palm-sized prints became, for me, a meditation, an urge to find personal balance and a contemplative search for meaning in a wartime reality.
While navigating the wounded land, I look for a glimmer of hope in people and places. I keep coming back to the same trinity that absorbed me—the soil, body, and warmth of a distant landscape. For me, uncertainty, fragility, and chaos, but also tenderness and hope, are the real essence of the series." — Vic Bakin
