Embering
An inherent phenomenon and custom characteristic of the Bieszczady landscape has been systematically disappearing for some time. The charcoal burning that had been practiced for decades was a traditional occupation, passed down from generation to generation. Today, production continues in only a few locations. I am on a journey during which I document the remnants of this activity and the places that are slowly fading into history.

Over time, the works began to deteriorate.
Much like the phenomenon itself, they are slowly fading into oblivion.
