How ambiguous can light be?

"I love film, but photography is still my original love. ”

Born in Košice, Slovakia, Oliver Takác studied cinematography at the Bratislava Academy of Performing Arts and is a genius for working with light and shadow.

Light and shadow seem to have life and spirituality in his lens, which can tell stories and express emotions. He is like a naughty boy, playing games with light and shadow with unbridled creativity, and like a magician, he uses light and shadow to change dreamlike visual effects.

Looking at his works, sometimes it looks like a deep and quiet literary film. A ray of light is like a key, opening a closed space, dispelling a cloud of darkness, dissecting a secret, and watching the light illuminate the model's face, as if one has suddenly entered a quiet world. Sometimes, it's like watching a beautiful European movie. The light is like the warm and soft light of the fireplace in the fireplace, reflecting people like a classical oil painting, emerging from the darkness and having a sense of holiness in the light.

But no matter how Oliver Takac plays with light and shadow, and how he uses light to make the picture charming and charming, you can still read the same theme in his work – loneliness. Oliver Takac uses light and shadow to create different layers, an ensemble of cold and warm, the collision of light and dark, and the interweaving of light and shadow.

He tries to convey a myriad of delicate emotions, like perfumes, the top notes are romantic and psychedelic, the middle notes are quiet and calm, and the base notes will leave a long time of loneliness. This aroma is sultry, not so sweet that it makes people dizzy, but cold, cool, but addictive.

The sense of loneliness created by Oliver Takac's work will make you feel like everything in the universe is immersed in the infinite darkness and chaos. There is only this light in the whole world, shining on people's bodies and faces, lighting up people's hearts and giving people a little hope and yearning.
