Works of Magdalena Chodownik and Marcin Zaborowski is a series of photographs/reflections on the history. Photographers use the double exposure to recall the events of the past, after which the world screamed "Never again", superimposing them on images related to current events of a similar character, which happen to Rohingya minority in Burma. Again...
"- Double exposures are two overlapping images that together form another dimension of the subject. The pictures are in spite of the different places and history behind them. After their combination, it turns out that physically distant events actually have a lot in common. This modern form also leaves plenty of room for imagination for both the viewer and the author.: - says photographer Marcin Zaborowski.
And so Zaborowski's photographies describe the tragic events in Burma and the pogroms of the Burmese Muslims, while the works by Magdalena Chodownik call up historical events.
"- Our double exposure form allows you to place individual frames in a wider context. By "broader" I mean temporal, historical as well as territorial. Conflicts, wars, the search for shelter are unhappiness, which in history is repeated systematically. The reference to current events to those of the past shows the sad truth about the fact that little has been learned from these experiences" - says Magda Chodownik.
"Double vision: dark times for the Rohingya echo past horrors. In this photography project, Never Again, every picture combines two images – one of Myanmar’s Rohingya Muslims superimposed on that of a different tragedy, from the Armenian genocide through the Balkans war to current-day refugees." - The Guardian
