    "Fantasy kaleidoscope (Digital photographer, Ukraine, October 2006) Confess that something, that you do not fully understand, attracts you the most. This something can irritate and call for denial. It is just another proof of narrowness of confined human mind. On the other side, it can amaze you. This unexplainable and fertile field of emotional nuances can give you the feeling of admiration and endless possibilities of self improvement. Either way, any question that does not have an answer, will not let your mind rest. If there was a competition between those, that are looking for answers to hopeless questions, Bogdan Zwir would be a winner. A little boy from cold and forgotten by sun north of Russia. A college kid that troubled teachers with questions that went beyond the subject. A young man, that was not looking for a "better" place in the world, but settled in surreal Saint Petersburg. In the city, that gives most honest and exciting hints and leads. It encrypts them with a whisper of swamps and calligraphy of the rain, dirty low skies and waves of Neva river in a cold wind. It is important to have a mind enquiring enough to notice these hints. To have a creativity that is not locked up in the narrow canons of what is right and wrong. To be selfish just enough not to doubt own potential and, finally, not be afraid of loneliness, that moves an artist... Why number 3 is special, red color - instinctively unsettling and round forms are most harmonious? Why a crow, though smart, has an evil reputation? What is endless space and how to understand it? If we are pawns in someone's game, then where do our souls go at the end of the game? If it's wise to remain speechless and curiosity is a ticket to hell, then why these questions seem so attractive to Bogdan? Are they attractive to only him? Figures materialize sometimes absurdly, like semi-answers. Bogdan works on them slowly and gently, so not to scare the Idea and not to insult it with mistakes of editing in the powerful, but tricky Photoshop - a program that does not coexist with laziness and bad taste. Going by sketches of his creativity, life experience or dreams, Zwir dresses up the future masterpiece in layered exquisite gown, in which everything works for the Idea - proportions of the forms, play of light and shadows, unity of color and texture. His works can call for admiration or disgust, make to think or hit someone on the head with their boldness, dominate or induce a desire to never see them again. Someone could love or hate Bogdan's pictures, but it is impossible to stay indifferent. Just as impossible not to notice a tall standing man, when the world around is shaking. A man that will not bow to old customs and will remain independent in his views. A man that will not back up in front of difficult questions and will not try to avoid to answer them. A man that possess a unique individuality and does not give in under a pressure of hard critique. The fans and the enemies, all alike, will be watching Bogdan. All of them are drawn by something that is impossible to fully comprehend. By something that calls for a protest of conceited human mind, that is unable to give a rational explanation to everything..
