Piotr Zbierski – Echoes Shades

In the introduction to his new book, Piotr Zbierski states that “Echoes Shades” is a story about people living close to nature, about communities and tribes cultivating ancient rituals honouring their ancestors, and about alternative, natural medicine in Poland and Siberia.
The book is filled with black and white photographs that are hard to wrap your head around. Some are straight forward, but the majority are oblique, sometimes very spooky, images.
