George Hurrell's photographic legacy has shaped the aesthetic of Krzysztof Swęd, whose classic style shines through in every shot. Krzysztof Swęd's photographs are imbued with diverse emotions, leaving it up to each viewer to interpret their meaning. Some of them are even accompanied by specially dedicated poems, thus reinforcing their poetic resonance.
His work is characterized by a harmonious fusion of various artistic techniques such as brush, felt and varnish, especially in the case of gelatin photos. Mainly focused on female portraits and nudes, his works are deeply influenced by Polish poetry as well as the writings of William Butler Yeats. Each theme is often accompanied by a poem specifically dedicated to it.
