This image is part of my fineart photography project Praesentia Aeterna, which was exhibited this year in the Kysucka Gallery in Oščadnica (Slovakia) and in the Kunstraum Valentinum and Galerie am Fischbrunnen in Braunau am Inn (Austria). I work exclusively alone and with real people, my images are created optically in the camera.(long exposure,bulb mode) There is no AI. This image points to humanity and its development. Although the means of communication are changing rapidly, the need to love and be loved is eternal.
