In my diploma thesis, I am exploring the process of remembering as a basic principle of memory. In the practical part, I collected unusual and never documented memories of people and interpreted them through the medium of photography. I developed the photographic series within the style of magical realism, which I studied through several artistic media such as film, literature, and photography. I focused on staged photography and analyzed authors who deal with elements of magical realism in their work. In my photography, I tried to achieve a magical atmosphere, because of which we attach special significance to certain memories compared to others.
