How much of one’s body should one sacrifice to stop being oneself

Body is the theme of the photography cycle by hueckelserafin group. Authors refer to childish paper cut-outs. It is during the play with cut outs that they overcame approved standards and started experimenting on their own bodies. Body is treated as a product and its role is limited to a wrapping. Authors challenge us to consider the meaning of superficiality and its influence on everyday life. The world of mercenariness is neglected; cult of a beautiful body; the lack of respect towards an individual. They ask who a man is.

Magda Hueckel and Agata Serafin launched hueckelserafin group on 16/17 March 2002. It was similar perception of reality, fascination with photography and mutual influence of personalities that made them create together. In 2003 authors completed their studies in Art and Graphics Department of ASP in Gdańsk, where they were instructed by Witold Węgrzyn. Authors also studied at VŠVU in Bratislava and Schule für Geschtaltung in Sankt Gallen. They have taken part in numerous in and overseas exhibitions.
