Canned

'Canned' is an ongoing surreal fine art photography series by Boris Benko, exploring isolation, societal conditioning, and the struggle between comfort and the unknown. Through striking imagery, it symbolizes self-imposed boundaries, the programmed rhythms of modern life, and the fragile desire for change—culminating in the questions: “Who holds the spoon? Am I truly liberated, or merely awaiting another fate?” Like life itself, stepping into the unknown means embracing both possibility and the risk of being consumed by forces beyond our control. Blending conceptual storytelling, dark elegance, and minimalist fine art photography, this series invites reflection on what it means to be trapped, preserved, and—if only for a moment—set free.
