Environmental

Aleks Faust’s latest exhibition invites viewers to experience rather than analyse, embracing intuition over explanation. Through composition, colour harmony, and contrast, Faust weaves irony, humour, and wit into a poetic exploration of urban life.

Shot in residential areas, the series captures discarded objects and traces of human presence without intervention. Familiar scenes are reframed, transforming the ordinary into something newly perceptible—like seeing a known space through a different lens.

Beneath its visual storytelling, the work subtly reflects on a deeper theme: the connection between waste disposal and collective mental health. Faust draws parallels between how society discards objects and how individuals manage emotions, suggesting an implicit link between environmental and psychological well-being.

While ecological concerns resonate through the series, Faust remains an observer rather than a commentator. The work raises questions rather than providing answers, inviting viewers to interpret and reflect.
