Branislav Kropilak is a contemporary photographer born in Slovakia. He studied at the Private Academy of Fine Arts in Bratislava and afterwards at the Institute of Digital Photography in Prague. He has worked for example for BBDO, McCann Erickson and Saatchi & Saatchi. 
The main theme in his work is investigating the way modern technology has changed the environment and our lives. He is inspired by industrial design, architecture and urbanism. I think it's interesting how most of his photographs are of things that are not considered beautiful, for example garages and factories, and how he can make you look at them in a different way.
