Terezie Foldynová (*1985) is an experimental photographer. She studied under Michal Kalhous at the Photography Studio of Ostrava University’s Faculty of Fine Arts and Music, and she also graduated in Czech Language and Literature from the University’s Faculty of Arts. Terezie is a philosophizing author whose predestinative reflections on artistic creation take literary and poetic forms. Within the medium of photography she also ventures into a variety of experimental realms including chemiography, the phytogram method, collage, or the combination of photography with texts. Besides exploring themes related to family and the backdrop of the lived world, her work often centres around natural entities from her own garden – trees, leaves, conifer needles and plants. She interrogates the autonomy of these entities along a scale ranging from classic photographic images, via transcriptions of the natural shapes of freely arranged plants onto photosensitive paper, to radical experimental procedures in which parts of plants are dipped into ecological photographic developers in order to serve as tools for imprinting or drawing.
