There are different ways of looking of photographs……….
One way is to look through Studium, gathering information about subject, history, context and even technique….

Justyna Nascimento is a UK‑based Polish artist working in photography. Her practice turns toward questions of self‑identity, drawing its depth from the strata of memory.

She looks for conceptual way of expressions using masks, paints, home made camera lens filters.
