" The Bogota used to share its walls with a bedraggled, old hooker-bar, which I loved. It was low-lit, with stained velvet banquettes and stained, jolly ladies-of-the-night. In bustiers and fishnets, les girls sometimes stood outside, under a blinking neon sign, right next to the steps of the hotel. Until last year. Now the "piano bar" has become a kitchen design centre, another deathly tendril from the rest of Europe that will one day turn Berlin into everywhere else. Soon, I suppose, the Bogota will change with the prevailing weather into The Four Seasons." ---Rupert Everett

Where do you go to my lovely... When you're alone in your bed... I know the thoughts that surround you... Because I can get inside your head. ---Peter Sarstedt, 1969

“Witek approaches the women in his photographs spontaneously, carefully and discretely, without preconception. Different from many photographers, he does not aim for direct interpersonal confrontation in the visualization, but instead allows his models ample space for self-expression. In a way, he remains a quiet connoisseur”. Mathias Harder, Curator, Helmut Newton Foundation. From VIRAGEM

“TED’S  PHOTOGRAPHS CAPTURE MANY ELEMENTS OF THE POWER OF FEMININITY, BE THAT ELEGANCE, SENSUALITY, STRENGTH OR EVEN MYSTERY...”

"Fashion is in the sky, in the street, fashion has to do with ideas, the way we live, what is happening". ---Coco Chanel

In a preface to her book 'One Hundred Flowers', Georgia O’Keeffe describes how everyone sees flowers “as small”. So, she paints them big … “surprising the viewer into taking time to look at it”. This is exactly how Ted photographs flowers. The following images illustrate the natural beauty and the unique form and color of every flower. This photographic study spans several years and several countries. Master printer Carol Fonde’s enthusiastic collaboration is represented here by these images selected by curator Hilda Yasseri. This portfiolio is represented in New York City by June Bateman Fine Arts .
