The Longest Day

There is a small community and an untouched land where the sun doesn't set for months.

There is a small community and an untouched land where the sun doesn't set for months. Located between Norway mainland and the North Pole, Svalbard inspired humans to explore, conquer, push boundaries and to seek places far away from reality. The patterns are constantly repeating - and so are the symbols. Arctic silence, harsh landscapes and humans are becoming one, yet we all feel very small. One cannot be born or die here, but this is often an escape: so what are you running away from?

The Longest Day received 3rd place in Slovak Press Photo 2016's international category for young photographers up to 25 years.
