Rafal Milach Backstage of the Polish National Opera. Warsaw, Poland. 2019.
“I’ve been fascinated with curtains since I watched David Lynch’s Twin Peaks, as a teenager. They are a conspicuous symbol of what is
(...) hidden and often unseen. Exploring these themes has motivated me to become the documentary photographer I am today.
Indeed, curtains have appeared in most of the projects I’ve done thus far. This particular stage set lies hidden behind one of the biggest curtains in Poland, at the National Opera in Warsaw.”
