Photography Exhibition : I am where I am by Greta Požaricka

  • PHOTO BOOK CAFE 4 Leonard Circus London, England, EC2A 4DQ United Kingdom (map)

Greta Požaricka is a Lithuanian photographer whose practice combines portraiture, fashion, and documentary approaches. Her work explores identity, intimacy, and the relationship between people and the spaces they inhabit, while also placing herself in front of the camera to understand the power the camera and photographer can hold.

I am where I am presents an exploration of the power dynamics between personal identity and domestic space. The work investigates the relationship between the bedroom, clothing, and self-expression, examining how domestic spaces become sites of identity construction, intimacy, and memory. The project began in 2023 with self-portraiture, exploring what a bedroom can hold and the experience of waking within it. It later developed into autoethnographic research, returning to the artist’s first bedroom in Lithuania as a place of reflection and memory.

The work also considers the dynamics between photographer and subject, exploring how participants experience being photographed within their own bedrooms. Bringing together analogue and digital images, alongside self-portraits created by participants, the project emphasises collaboration, agency, and comfort. Through images made across London and Lithuania, the project explores how fashion exists within these private spaces, carrying personal and emotional significance. Clothing often embodies memories, both positive and negative, and in the context of the bedroom, reflects the freedom to experiment with identity away from external judgment.
