This edition was released in 2023, on my 20th birthday.

It is the most conceptual and experimental volume so far. Looking back, I see it as my first real artistic crisis — the end of my teenage years, working abroad, unrealized dreams, and the feeling of being slightly behind myself. I was lost at that time. Moving to Warsaw felt overwhelming; the capital was too big for a boy who was still learning who he wanted to become.

I eventually understood that if I wanted to swim with the big fish, I had to change the lake — and grow up. That year, I spent most of my time learning light, assisting on commercial shoots, and working alongside photographers who, just a few months earlier, had been my idols. The whole experience felt surreal. Despite how difficult it was, this period taught me more than any previous one and gave me my first real lessons about adult life.

This issue is visibly different from the earlier editions. The cover is a metaphor for “how I spent the last days of being a teenager in a chaotic world — trying to survive, move forward, and not look on...”

I wrote an extensive introduction and closing text for this edition. At the time, I felt the need to explain myself, to process the previous year, and to fill the gap left by the absence in the photographs from that period.

Edition: 100 copies.
