Zofia Chomętowska, born in 1902 in Polesie, was an experimenter, an avid motorist, and an attentive observer of reality. She grew up in a landowning family, attended the Warsaw salons of the interwar period, and as one of the first Polish female photographers, paved international trails. Her photographs documented life in Polesie, interwar Europe, the modernizing Warsaw under Starzyński, and post-war Warsaw in ruins, full of hope for reconstruction.
Ula Ryciak, the author of bestselling biographies, once again builds a close and multidimensional relationship with her heroine. In "Light-Sensitive," she presents the life of Chomętowska in such a way that readers can observe the artist through the lens of the camera and become accomplices in her perception of reality.
