About Miroslav Tichý
In the beginning of his career Tichy mainly focused on his painting and drawing skills but in 60’s he switched to photography. He used his handmade cameras and other parts of photographic equipment not because of lack of finances but because making them was his hobby. He refurbished an old shed at the back garden of his house to photographic chamber. This is where most of his photographs were given a life. Every day he was browsing streets of Kyjov making pictures mainly of women but also capturing momentums of situations and different corners of the town, which could be seen only by artists eye
