Since the 1980s, Witold Krassowski has photographed during decisive historical political events that have helped
shape society in countries like India, Mongolia and Afghanistan, but perhaps his most well-known
images are the ones he took during the transforming conditions in Poland after 1989—choosing
to focus on the lives of common citizens—rather than the elite or political entities. Capturing basic
human phenomenon such as birth, procreation and death, Krassowski’s work identifies a common
thread throughout humanity.
