Jan Cihak's current body of work is formed under the collective title of Hunt. Focusing on the Fox as a symbol of the 'hunted', he works at night, seeking the Fox in its city dwellings. The act of creation becomes the 'hunt' for Jan as he searches out, points and shoots his subjects through the eye of the lens. Jan's photographs have a grainy quality to them and often reflect a narrative in a snapshot moment. "I also think that this animal more then others has got some indefinable aura" he says, adding, "the Fox can be seen as a symbol of other hunted creatures." As a photographer working in film and the digital medium, Jan questions his own approach to the medium and uses a number of techniques to do this. Born in 1978 in Czech Republic, Jan Cihak has had work in group and solo exhibitions and is currently studying at the London College of Communication, London. |
