9th November 2012 – 4th January 2013 At Dimbola Museum and Galleries

Garden of Eden is series of still-life photographs, inspired by old masters paintings, upon closer inspection featuring modern fruits and vegetables from supermarket, still including their label stickers or plastic wrapping. They were taken with 4x5 view camera.

Andrzej says, “The 21st century society has created a new Garden of Eden, where everything looks perfect and flawless. But many things, like the taste, the singularity and often even the humanity have been lost during this process. My intention was to inspire a discussion on our relationship with the nature and direction of our civilization.

Creation of the project was sponsored by the Ontario Arts Council grant.
