I perceive art photography as an important component of origami. Conveying origami through another media, photography changes our perception: by rendering motives from the chosen perspective, subtracting dimensions of depth, adding the effect of light and shadow, and integrating background. Through photography as a medium, an origami sculpture gets new clothes, often more presentable and more durable than the original.
I imagined this section as a collection of art photos of origami that will grow over time to include more authors, with the purpose of promoting and furthering the genre of origami photography.
Umjetnička fotografija predstavlja važnu komponentu mojeg viđenja origamija. Prenoseći origami u drugi medij, fotografija mijenja našu percepciju predstavljanjem svojeg motiva iz odabrane perspektive, oduzimanjem dimenzije dubine, dodavanjem efekta svjetla i sjene, te integriranjem pozadine. Tako origami skulptura dobiva novo ruho, često puta prezentnije i trajnije od originala.
Ovu rubriku sam zamislio kao kolekciju umjetničkih origami fotografija koja će s vremenom rasti i uključiti više autora, u svrhu promocije i afirmacije origami fotografije.
David Gazarov
David Gazarov is a world renowned pianist, composer and arranger in the field of jazz and classical music. He is also very seriously engaged in art photography and uses time between professional obligations to photograph nature, architecture, people, artwork and (of great happiness and gratitude by the author of this site) of his origami motives. These photographs bear the seal of an exceptional artistic sensibility.
David Gazarov je svjetski poznati pijanist, kompozitor i aranžer u području jazza i klasične glazbe. Također se vrlo ozbiljno bavi umjetničkom fotografijom i koristi vrijeme između profesionalnih obaveza za fotografiranje prirode, arhitekture, ljudi, umjetničkih djela i (na veliku sreću i zahvalnost autora ove web stranice) njegovih origami motiva. Te fotografije nose pečat jednog izuzetnog umjetničkog senzibiliteta.

Danilo Balaban has been in photography since 1982 when he left his master's degree in engineering and devoted himself to professional photography. In addition to the artwork, he has worked on numerous advertising campaigns, catalogs of art exhibitions, coveralls and fashion stations, and travel reports.
