At age 17 teen Ian Komac has better things to do than to sit around and play video games.
The Belgium photographer has found his passion elsewhere, in photography. Komac plays with different objects and experiments with both size and environment. Within his photographs he creates giant telephones in the forest and trees that act as lanterns.
The photographs seem to combine human and naturalistic elements, as Komac allows nature and objects to be given a role larger than their own. The surrealist quality to the photos and the use of light and shadow give the photos an eerie and mystical feel to them.
At only 17, this photographer has a bright future ahead of him as he continues to show us a fantastical world where anything is possible.
