Born in 1966, Mikołaj Grynberg is a photographer, writer, reporter, and a psychologist by training. As a Warsaw native, his works have typically been associated with the portraiture residents of the city with the main goal of capturing emotion. Two of his series, Czas pokaże (ENG: Time will Show), which focuses on young adults expressing their hopes and dreams, and Zawodowcy (ENG: Professionals), showing craftsmen and merchants of the Praga district in their now-defunct workplaces, are presented under the joint title Warszawiacy (ENG: Varsovians).
