A big city can never be boring enough for a day without at least one photo being taken. It’s the place where there’s always something happening. Something important, something insignificant, something completely ordinary. Something that is “worthless.” Something that everyone needs to see.
Szederkényi’s Buda is an ode to the city, but it is really a celebration of the people who live in it, who move around in it, who are constantly changing their situation. With young enthusiasm and excitement, he follows in the footsteps of his great predecessors – often instinctively rather than consciously. He has not yet found his own voice – he scans the city through the lens of his camera, looking for it somewhere where the film roll inside the box is illuminated. He waits for the moment to happen.
