Flow

Artist Name

Marta Szajneman-Szuba

Change is an inseparable part of existence. As early as Heraclitus of Ephesus, it was emphasized that the world is in constant motion. “Panta rhei “— everything flows and transforms, so time cannot be stopped, nor can any moment be recreated in its identical form.
For centuries, water has been one of the most fascinating phenomena for both philosophy and the visual arts. Its lack of a fixed form, its ability to reflect light and dissolve contours, make it a force that escapes classical categories of perception. It is precisely this processual nature that turns the observation of water into a point of departure for reflections on time, perception, duration, and the ontology of change.
With a camera, I record flowing water. My photographs are not merely documentation; they also become material for further digital processing. In this way, a visual representation of my encounters with water emerges — frames that preserve fragments of my own emotional worlds.
By recording changes in nature, we can also record our own shifts, our own fractures, our own breath. Each photograph can therefore be not only a record of the world, but also, in part, a self portrait — a reflection of the observer’s perspective.
“Flow” is, in essence, not only an observation of moving water, but also a form of introspection that leads to an acceptance of the world’s natural variability.

Artist Statement

I am an interdisciplinary designer.
My practice weaves together photography, printmaking, digital graphics, product design, and art mediation. In recent years, my work has been shaped by a continuous fascination with flow — the movement of water, the passage of time, the circulation of energy, and the shifting condition of the human being in a world defined by constant change.
