My name is Matej Filipič¸, I am a Slovenian documentary photographer 23 years old and have just completed a bachelor study of documentary photography at the Royal academy of arts Den Haag (KABK). Throughout my childhood and adult life I have travelled a lot around Europe, Asia, and North Africa. This led to my start in photography when I was around 10 years old. My use of the Camera evolved over time and now i see it as a tool of freedom and documentation, enabling me to admire and contemplate the interwoven mesh of individuals and their actions, called society. I stand as an observer, passing by, searching for humanness and character in people as well as in the things and places surrounding them. Meditating on the relationship between the personal and political, between humans and landscape Exploring reflections of ideas in our built reality, their role in our present and in shaping our future. Inspired by the complexity and beauty of our world.
