Wieliczka

Wieliczka (1946)

Salt has been mined underneath the town of Wieliczka for hundreds of years. Rock layers and salt stalactites form a lunar landscape in the mine. The close-ups expose the geometry of the rock drawings carved by water and orogenic movements. Men have entered the underground world and carved new objects and labyrinths using their tools.
