Sanja Baljkas belongs to a haptic type of photographers. She is a graphic designer and a photographer. Exploring her inner visions she steps out of classical frames of photography. She creates, with her unconventional approach to the theme, surreal compositions of the sights which seem to emerge from her dreams. Haptics relish creating their own mini-universes. She finds excitement in distorting the reality of the physical world and adding new dimensions to her photography. While in some photographers the reality is sacrosanct, her personal inner world is however more important to her. She adores to play with her alredy taken photographs. When she starts manipulating with them, you never know what will come out of it, and what she will drag out from her subconsciousness and her dreams.
