Maciej Leszczynski

Born 1986 in Elbląg, Poland. Currently lives and works in Gdańsk. Autodidact documentary and fine art photographer. His work primarily focuses on anthropogenic spaces and architectural forms, capturing them in the most precise and faithful way possible. Leszczynski is particularly interested in the ways in which space and architecture reflect the needs, identity, and history of society. Through his lens, he constructs lucid and detailed portraits of man-made topographies, both in his home country and worldwide.
