Paweł Adamek’s project Between Prayer and the Journey is a long-term documentary series developed since 2016, focused on attentive observation of human moments within the Hasidic community. The work explores faith, tradition, and the community’s interaction with the modern world. Adamek’s approach emphasizes capturing emotions, gestures, and shared experiences without judgment, aiming to preserve fleeting moments. His practice is rooted in continuity of observation and personal engagement with subjects, particularly during pilgrimages to the graves of tzaddikim, which he describes as encounters with profound faith, joy, and mysticism.
