“Accidents”
An accident is a specific, identifiable, unexpected, unusual and unintended external action which occurs in a particular time and place, without apparent or deliberate cause but with marked effects. It implies a generally negative probabilistic outcome which may have been avoided or prevented had circumstances leading up to the accident been recognized, and acted upon, prior to its occurrence.

 

Grzegorz Dąbrowski decided to enclose in his photographs extreme situations in the human life. Accidents have always occurred and we will always need to face them. Fires, car crashes, construction disasters – people die from them or get disabled, suddenly – with no warning. In the pictures the author intends to seize on the phenomenon of those terrifying occurrences.
