Fallen Angels
In Fractured Glory, Jaroslav Wieczorkiewicz breathes life into a figure caught between power and disintegration. The angel, arms spread wide, is frozen in a moment of revelation or sacrifice. His body, sculpted from liquid motion, exudes undeniable strength, yet his shattered wings—dispersed in chaotic splashes—suggest an entity shaped by trial and tribulation.
The artist plays with the ambiguity of the divine and the mortal: is this an ascension, a fall, or a moment of suspension between the two? The composition evokes classical depictions of martyrdom and redemption, while the use of projected milk lends the image an organic, ephemeral texture. The angel is bathed in light, standing in stark contrast against the surrounding darkness, reinforcing the notion of an internal struggle—a search for meaning amidst the dissolution of identity.
With this work, Wieczorkiewicz masterfully captures beauty within fragility, turning a moment of rupture into a majestic vision, where destruction itself takes on an almost divine quality.
Fallen Angels
Few photographic series capture both profound suffering and artistic transcendence as powerfully as Fallen Angels by Jaroslav Wieczorkiewicz. Blending fine art, mythology, and high-speed photography, this evocative work explores grief, trauma, and resilience through a unique visual language.
Inspired by personal loss—his mother’s cancer, his father’s depression, and a miscarriage within a year—Fallen Angels is a cathartic expression, externalizing sorrow while inviting viewers to confront their own experiences. Wieczorkiewicz sculpts suffering into form, using his signature technique of photographing splashes of milk and paint in motion. These fluid, ephemeral wings symbolize the fragile balance between celestial grace and human fragility.
Technically ambitious, the series combines high-speed photography with advanced digital compositing, layering hundreds of images into each composition. Beyond its striking aesthetic, Fallen Angels is a meditation on resilience, portraying figures caught between flight and descent, seeking light amid darkness.
Acclaimed for its originality, the series cements Wieczorkiewicz’s status as a pioneer in liquid photography, transforming the ephemeral into the eternal.
