520 |a "Eternal U is a story about the so-called good death and eternity. Through photographs of forests being natural cemeteries where the dead are buried in biodegradable urns or coffins, marked only with a previously selected tree, Humka shows a certain way of thinking about us as a code, an immortal chain of some larger universe. During life, we all draw from it, to later give it a part of ourselves: 'In each of these places, the forest itself, giving eternal rest to the people buried there, was the most important element for me,' - says Hubert Humka. - 'There I photographed the soil in which they rested and the bark of the trees they became. I like to think that the roots of these trees, drawing from the people buried under them, include them in their existence, that nothing ends, that it is only our human self that changes. We become a tree, a forest, part of something bigger that reaches beyond us. We connect with the universe, we become infinite.' Eternal U is the second, after Death Landscapes (2018), joint publishing project of Hubert Humka and BLOW UP PRESS. The book was created in the spirit of sustainable development, respect for the world and the surrounding nature, on ecological recycled papers. Its main axis are photographs of the forest (life), accompanied by negatives (death) and embossed text about leaving (traces we leave behind). 'With this book I close my own trilogy of death,' - says the artist. - 'In Evil Man I portrayed victims of homicide and suicide. In Death Landscapes I talked about landscapes tainted by trauma and death. In turn, Eternal U, in my opinion, brings peace, tames death, shows its completely different face.'"--Publisher's website

His projects have been shown at exhibitions in Polish and foreign museums and galleries, including: Contemporary Museum Wrocław, Leica Gallery Warsaw, Maison de la Photographie Lille, Claude Samuel Paris, as well as during international photography festivals, such as Les Rencontres d'Arles (France), Transphotographiques (France), Fotofestiwal Lodz (Poland), among others.
