There are places on Earth where a person becomes themselves
They lie far from cities and everyday life, and we almost never find ourselves there. These are natural places of power.
For thirteen years I have been flying to such places in small planes and helicopters and photographing them from above. This is the primordial Earth: rock that is millions of years old and forms that were here long before us. Each place has its own energy and its own unique codes. I called these works photo portals, because through them you can connect with a place from a distance. You look, you feel a response, and your state begins to change: calm comes, or clarity, or strength, differently for everyone. You recognise your portal by that response, and it opens up gradually.
We are part of nature, and the connection has never gone anywhere; we have simply forgotten how to feel it. A photo portal restores that connection and turns your space into a place of power. That is how you return to your true nature.
What is a photo portalTeleportation Session
Five minutes alone with a place of power. How will your body respond?
You hold an ordinary phone in your hand, and suddenly it turns into a living portal to another dimension. I literally felt that I had teleported inside a painting come to life. I was looking down at the Earth, and at some point I realized: this is not a picture. This is our planet. As if I were looking at it through the eyes of God. I am especially hard to impress with technology: I am a techie myself. For me this is art of the highest order. A standing ovation.

On your wall
Museum print on Hahnemühle Photo Rag, 100% cotton, made in your country. Every copy is numbered and comes with a certificate signed by the author.
What is a limited edition?
For each size, the number of copies is announced in advance, and that number never grows. Once the copies are gone, the work is no longer printed in that size.
Photo portals come in two proportions, 3:2 and 4:3, so the height varies slightly from portal to portal.
We reply within a day with the price for your size and production time. A photo of your wall helps us suggest the size; on request we advise on framing or find a framing studio in your city.

Photo portals in the world press
…To me this isn't only a photo, it's a work of art. Its painterly quality, plus the graphic nature of the landscape, takes this beyond an ordinary aerial photoshoot. Yes, it's right place at the right time, but it's technically impressive in that it's absolutely sharp and crisp. I hope to see more of your photos!

What people say
“Within a few seconds I was deeply immersed in my body. Calm and joy came. And a message from this portal: you can lean on the world.”
Stanislav, something incredible has just happened to me (and is still happening). My first look at the photograph: a smile from ear to ear and such joyful jubilation inside: "Oh, I know this! This energy is familiar to me."
And then it hit me: as if an osteopath took me gently and firmly by the shoulders, put a knee against my thoracic spine and began to straighten my back, strongly and gently. My shoulders turned and dropped back, my neck began to lengthen, the crown of my head up, my chest opened, and I still can't slouch the way I usually do.
And yet there is no tension, inside there is absolute calm and jubilation. I don't yet understand what these energies are doing with my body, but I really like it! Thank you from my heart for sharing this miracle!
This is another long-held dream of ours: a photograph of the planet by Stanislav. It is our wedding gift to ourselves. It carries a very powerful meaning.

Pure joy. I can really feel the energy of the work in the space. When I buy a house, I'll order a few more works in a large size.
Natali ApraksinaWith her photo portal at homeAll portals are fantastic, they are so alive. The portal I chose took me deep into sensations, as if I were flying and seeing the place with my own eyes. While watching, I felt my whole body. It raised feelings and emotions.
Thank you, Stanislav, for your gift to the world.
Every one of your works definitely changes the chemistry of the body. It is like a beacon, a tuning fork: you have forgotten a little, then suddenly, look, remember, and move on.
My eldest son says: turn this song on for me, it will help me remember who I am and why I was created.
Incredibly beautiful artwork. Seeing the rivers like veins of life.
It felt as if my spine began to warm up and the warmth spread inside. Grounded and filled.
For me it's not really a piece of art, it's much more important. I feel the energy of Gaia that you convey through this photograph.
Rivers like thoughts, energy spilling into something bigger: desires, actions, events.
My biggest insight from this journey is that fear is inside me, and I can just let it out.
I can breathe, an inner warmth has appeared, I want to live.
A feeling of freshness and lightness. You feel it with your body, with your eyes.
Expansion. The body has no boundaries.
It was wonderful, five minutes of silence and calm. How beautiful our planet is. Words can't convey it, you have to feel it, and that is what just happened.
