Paweł Sawicki - Museum in photography

Basically my job has nothing to do with photography. I am a radio journalist working on the Polish Radio Culture section. Accept that I am a Holocaust historian – that is why so much of my photos are taken in Auschwitz. I work in several projects from which the biggest is „Europe according to Auschwitz“ based at Warsaw University Laboratory of Reportage. I’ve been photographing for about three years. I used to take analogue pictures, but now I have a digital camera. My main interest in photography is people – their emotions, reactions and actions. I think you can really tell something about the world through their faces. I think you can show almost everything just showing people in different contexts and perspectives.
