Probably there lies my preference today towards my beloved Leica Q2M with not many technical decisions to be made but framing and moving. As my parents didn't trust in the arts of being a safety place for my future, I had to let temporarily let go of my desire to become a photographer and artist and studied pharmacy, in which a have a degree of Mag.pharm. In the meantime, I studied the big photographers and art by myself and started taking workshops for camera technique and flash with my first SLR camera a Nikon D90 about 20 years ago. I steadily intensified my training with renown photographers like Tim Mantoani, Steve Mc Curry, Eolo Perfido, Steve Thornton, Marc De Tollenaere and David Alan Harvey and many more to learn about my way, to improve my photography and the ability to edit. Marc De Tollenaere and David Alan Harvey are up until today my mentors and Marc is the curator of my last two exhibitions.\nWhile I was experimenting a lot with travel photography and even macro photography before, I finally made it into what I always have been burning for: An \"Empty-Venice\" photo workshop during the pandemic in July 2020 proofed to change my (photographic) life forever. I fell in love with the streets and street photography, after I had seen the exhibition \"Le grand Jeu\" in Palazzo Grassi - the catalogue with 5 different curators is guiding me in many respects up until today. I let go of all the heavy equipment and decided to fly free with what I could carry around for my endless and obsessive sessions. 3 months later, Leica released the tool, which I needed for my liberation has become my \"extended arm\" ever since then. I love to shoot in the dark, in the streets and in old dark houses and during traditional festivals. 2023 I exhibited \"Mirrors and Windows\" my first show of street photography. My actual exhibition \" Rifletti prima di riflettere\" is a portrait of a 88 year old female artist in interaction with the living organism of her Venetian palazzo.

Her work explores the intersection of movement, memory, the body, and the psyche. She graduated from the Photo Academy in Amsterdam in 2023 with the photo artist book Where the Spirit Meets the Bone, which was published in two editions and is now sold out. The book was distributed internationally and stocked in bookshops such as Tipi Bookshop in Brussels, Le Bal in Paris, and others in Milan, Lisbon, London, and more. It also found a place in photobook libraries in Salzburg and Barcelona, and was curated by esteemed institutions including Huis Marseille and Foam in Amsterdam.\n\nIn 2023, she was selected as a Fresh Eyes Talent and presented her work at Haute Photography and the OFF Bratislava Festival. Her book was named one of the best photobooks of the year by Robin Titchener. In 2024, Belier’s solo show Inner Movement opened at Atelier K84 in Amsterdam. She was shortlisted for the Athens Photo Festival, exhibited at Corporeality in Paris, and was a semi-finalist at Head On in Sydney.\n\nBelier is currently developing In Search of Nijinsky, a multidisciplinary project on the dancer’s legacy. She released a zine Field Notes following a research trip for her project In Search of Nijinsky, to Switzerland, presented at the Pennings Foundation Photo Festival.

Her new book, In Search of Nijinsky, is set for release in early 2026.\n\nArtist Statement\n\nMy work explores the human psyche, memory, and the challenge of giving form to emotions for which words often fall short.\nI focus on emotional landscapes such as grief, longing, ecstasy, and rupture, which I attempt to capture through movement and somatic presence. Many of my images reflect a deep-rooted fear of disappearing or being unseen, themes closely tied to my experiences with depression and panic since 2017.\n\nIn my practice, I move between archival research, landscape exploration, portraiture, and storytelling. I search for movements that usually go unnoticed but reveal something essential about inner experiences. The stories that emerge are raw and personal, yet at the same time universal and recognisable. I invite viewers to find reflections of themselves in my work, where inner movement is carried equally by the body and the landscape.","user_id":298280,"name":"Monique Belier","website":"www.moniquebelier.nl"},{"id":300955,"bio":"My hobby is fine-art photography.

But it is not until I moved to New Orleans in 2004 that I discovered my photographic eye: after a nearly fatal car accident, all I could think of was taking pictures. The world looked different and I saw details I hadn't seen before. From there I started experimenting with all sorts of equipment and techniques, from digital to analog to alternative processes, which brought me to wet plate collodion. Wet plate collodion is undeniably an amazing process to capture someone's mood and emotions, and this has been an ongoing project of mine for the past few years.  While these portraits were typically printed in albumen back in the late 1800's and early 1900's, I prefer the subtlety and tonal range of platinum-palladium and photogravure which remains at the core of most of my prints.\n\nI now regard printmaking almost as important as taking photographs, and my interest has shifted from taking pictures to crafting images. Some may not see any difference between the two, but I do. I look at prints like objects, and I find that certain processes can greatly complement the aesthetic of a photograph,  I enjoy working with labor-intensive and slow antique photographic processes, incorporating old techniques and equipment with new ones, and mixing them with contemporary or timeless subjects. I find that each of these mediums gives the specific portfolio a poetic impression yet tactile expression.

Later, she studied Photojournalism at Moscow State University and Short film production at School of Visual Arts (Moscow). She attended the Eddie Adams Workshop (USA) and the International Summer School of Photography (Latvia). Also, constantly learning on her own has always been essential for Pleshkova. In the end, it was self-learning that foremost shaped her artistic practice. \nPleshkova’s artworks have been shown internationally, including exhibitions and festivals in Russia, France, Spain, Italy, Georgia, the Czech Republic, and Slovenia. Her works are part of the Tbilisi Photography \u0026amp; Multimedia Museum collection and of numerous private collections. \nIn her work, Pleshkova explores the boundaries of self-portraiture. Her life and art are inseparably connected: she lives her life through her art, making intimate and self-revealing projects. She explores the Microcosm, the human universe, and certain moments of the highest intensity of life. Pleshkova’s projects are always autobiographical, but the autobiography is just an excuse to talk about things that are universal and common to all humankind. \nPleshkova says, “I make self-portraits because I am so often alone, and because I am the person I know best. Creation is the opposite of death, and each self-portrait is the answer to the question “Am I still alive?”\n","user_id":9832,"name":"Maria Pleshkova","website":"www.mariapleshkova.com"},{"id":10199,"bio":"Born in New Jersey in 1974, Kerry graduated with a Bachelor Degree of Photography from UC Berkeley and currently resides in San Francisco, California.

Through the lens, I was not merely a chronicler, but an interpreter, reading narratives through the nuanced interplay of colors, contrasts, and compositions. \nPhotography is the ultimate keeper of records, an unbroken chain of moments, emotions, and stories that wove past, present, and future into a seamless, harmonious continuum. Through the lens of his venerable camera, I learned the timeless art of preserving memories, uniting with the ever-evolving stories.","user_id":775464,"name":"Seoyi Kim","website":"www.sophkim.com"},{"id":49743,"bio":"In 2011, graduated from Journalism, goes to a season in Montreal, where in 2012, studied Documental Photography.

He uses all his personal life experiences to express his inner world, a world in which he persists in wanting to show the vitality of a happy humanity, but also a world where imagination transforms the harsh conditions of reality. All this to achieve the goal of his artistic journey: self-discovery.\n\nIn the series “On the Road from Bikoro Bokonda” (2012) and “The old colonial villas of Mbandaka” (2012 and 2013), he humorously refer to a tradition of ethnographic photography, which he happily twists.\n\nIn “I am Walé Respect Me” (2013 and 2014) and “Forever Walé” (2014), female subjects depict their return to society through the lyrical narrative of their isolation.\n\nIn “Walé, 2ème Regard” (2015) he portrays the Walé motherhood ritual in ornate colour and intimate proximity.\n\n“The Art of Survival” (2016), commissioned by Save the Children, is his latest project where he depicts what it’s really like to be a refugee child by staging their experiences and hopes.\n\nSince 2012, his work has been nominated, finalist or winner of 12 prestigious international awards including SFR Paris Photo 2012, Leica Oskar Barnack Award 2014, Discovery Award Rencontres d'Arles 2014, Sony World Photo Awards 2016, Prix Coup de Coeur HSBC for Photography 2016.\n\nHis work continues to attract the attention of the jury of international festivals, while the international press continues to publish his work: CNN, The Huffington Post, The Guardian, Paris Match, Stern…\n\nSince 2014, Patrick is represented by galerie baudoin lebon in Paris and Vision Quest in Genoa with respective solo shows in 2015.

I explore the interaction of human culture with plant life as a metaphor for the human condition. \nWhile working on my Master of Research in Antwerp 2010/11, I found the origin of this culture-nature relationship within Victorian landscape gardens and specifically Victorian conservatories. \nIn 19th century there was, for the first time in contemporary history, a building created especially for plants and their particular needs on the one side, and on the other side, intended as a place of pleasure and amusement for people - the Victorian Conservatory. \"As an increasingly common but distinctive social space, the conservatory was balanced, sometimes literally and always symbolically, between culture (formal reception room) and nature (the garden).\" (1)\nDriven by a significant concept in Victorian architecture, bringing the garden into the house, a further\u0026nbsp;glass object was invented, which brought exotic nature into civilization - the Wardian Case. Invented by Dr. Nathaniel Bagshaw Ward in 1829, this kind of vitrine was successful in importing tropical and rare plants in closely glazed cases to Europe. (2)\nIn these cases, as well as the conservatories, plants became easily cultivated, controlled and nurtured.\u0026nbsp;To set plants under glass gives them excellent conditions to prosper and grow and to be displayed at the same time. Therefore, the Victorian conservatory, functioned as a kind of showroom for imported exotic and tropical plants — nestled in a variety of grottos, fountains, artificial rock works, statuary and tree ferns, the plants were on display in a most flattering and glamorous surrounding, providing entertainment for the audience as well. (3)\n\n(1)\u0026nbsp;\nSee p. 277: Margaret Flanders Darby, Joseph Paxton's Water Lily \nExtract from Bourgeois and Aristocratic Culture Encounters in Garden Art, 1550-1850, edited by Michael Conan, Dumbarton Oaks Research Library and Collection, Washington, D.C. 2002\n\n(2)\u0026nbsp;\n“The Wardian case, was an early type of sealed protective container for plants, which found great use in the 19th Century in protecting foreign plants imported to Europe from overseas, the great majority of which had previously died from exposure during long sea journeys, frustrating the many scientific and amateur botanists of the time. The Wardian case was the direct forerunner of the modern terrarium (and the inspiration for the glass aquarium), and was invented by Dr. Nathaniel Bagshaw Ward (1791–1868), of London, in about 1829 after an accidental discovery inspired him.”\u0026nbsp;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wardian_case\nOn the Growth of Plants in Closely Glazed Cases, Nathaniel Bagshaw Ward, London 1841\n\n(3)\u0026nbsp;\nThe most remarkable glass building from that period is the Crystal Palace from the Great Exhibition in 1851 in Hyde Park, London. This massive glasshouse was designed by Joseph Paxton, an English gardener and landscaper, and displayed extraordinary and impressive plants and trees, within the exhibition of culture and industry goods from every nation.","user_id":54020,"name":"Mireille Schellhorn","website":"www.mireilleschellhorn.com"}]}
