Then, at the age of 17, I discovered film photography and I still use it to this day, constantly capturing the people and moments of life around me. \n\nI have always been drawn to creating visual content, and my inexplicable dream was to try working in filmmaking. After high school I decided to enroll in Media Communications, as this faculty combined a lot of creative opportunities. And it turned out to be for nothing: during my studies I made a documentary movie dedicated to relationships and hardships of sisterhood, as well as a video clip for a music group.  \n\nBy the end of my first university year, I realized that I wanted to try working in film production. From then on, I fell in love with filmmaking and associated myself with this field for several years to come. I was very well remembered on the first project where I worked as an intern and began to be invited to other projects. It was great, but I realized that I had to move on and try my hand at something else. I wanted to make my own projects and realize myself through my own creative ideas. \n\nSo in September 2021 I shot a funny documentary project in the style of the TV series Office about a friend's wedding, and then I went to work as a junior creator at Conde Nast. \n\nIn autumn 2022 I started studying photography in Berlin. During this time, I realized that I like to interact with people, I like to show their beauty and uniqueness through photography. I also like to find unusual characters and generally make documentary projects about their lives.  \n\nBefore I left for Berlin, in the summer, I went to the iconic Chaika swimming pool in Moscow and was impressed by the number of bright, interesting elderly people I saw there. Then an idea was born in my head to make a project. In August 2023, having already gained experience in photography, with the desire to make my own documentary book about these people, I returned there and spent a whole month talking to the residents of the pool, listening to their stories and photographing them. I was very happy with the result and now I'm eager to give publicity to this project.","user_id":795944,"name":"Praskovia Malinka","website":"pashamalinka.com"},{"id":773753,"bio":"","user_id":765801,"name":"Rosanna Ruggiero","website":""},{"id":773772,"bio":"Brian Van Lau (b.1996, Honolulu, HI) is an Asian-American photographer based in Seattle, WA.

In her elaborate self-portraits, she places herself within a mountain of painstakingly-realised objects such as a life-sized doll and decorated boxes made by herself. The combination of Katayama’s hand-sewn objects, sculptural pieces and photography challenges viewers to question the body and its complex relationship with the surrounding environment and society.\n\nAfter the amputation of her lower legs due to tibial hemimelia at the age of nine, Katayama hid her physical impairment so that she could live like “everyone else.” It was only at the age of sixteen that she consciously started to create and see herself as an artist. Since then, Katayama has used her body, which keeps changing its shape, size and roles in society, as a creative agent to approach, reflect and connect to the society as well as her own curiosity towards the common obsession and desire for (artificially created) beauty.\n\nAt the same time, Katayama’s creative activity gradually expanded from photographing self-portraits in her own room to going outdoors, photographing other people’s bodies and inviting the help of others’ hands. To name just a few, in 2016, she frequently went to the island of Naoshima to create the “bystander” series, in which she photographed the hands of puppeteers at a female-only Bunraku puppet theatre company, to develop a collection of photographs and the hand-sewn objects. This was the first time for Katayama to feature other people’s bodies in her work. And in 2023, the second edition of Katayama’s High Heel Project (the project itself was started in 2011) saw completion of the completely custom-made high heels through long-term collaborative work with many individuals and corporations. These experiences, combined with the gradual expansion in her working style, made Katayama realise the difficulty and power of “living together,” but also that she cannot say she owns her body, whose vitality is only made possible by numerous people and support mechanisms. These include prosthetists who know her body better than she does, social support from the disability welfare system, and her family and friends.\n\nAlthough Katayama’s work takes personal matters as its starting point, these personal matters are not Katayama’s themes. The essence of the questions and perspectives that emerge from her works and her activities are always directed towards society.\n\nKatayama says: “I am not aware that the person in the self-portraits is myself. There is something in me which is the same as you. I am you.” This leads one to question who is pictured in the portraits, and who their body belongs to. It also leads one to reflect on why they might think in this way. Today, individuals can easily post and share images through social media, such as their appearance, whereabouts, behaviours and even their past doings. “How much of this is you and how much is not you? Who do I and you belong to, and where are we?” The answer to these questions seems to have become even more unclear.\n\nKatayama’s images and objects engage viewers in fundamental questions about the body, and the complex issues around bodies such as biased gazes, social labels and what is considered correct or incorrect.

Technical ability is certainly present but to reduce him to a technician would be sacrilege, he’s an artist.\n\nThe reason I know that his talent is far from just technical is that he is willing to abandon all traditional sense of structure to allow a perfect alive moment to exist in his work. He isn’t bound by the rules of photography.\n\nIf this alive moment happens to involve a person he is shooting, it will have come about because of the trust he inspires in his subjects.

Dos imanes que se repelen o se atraen. Dos lenguajes donde la relación nunca termina de establecerse. \nLa palabra comunica y evoca, pero hay algo que nunca puede terminar de ser dicho: el azul que se enuncia, posiblemente no será el azul que alguien imagina. \nLa imagen conserva el gesto del color, pero también hay algo que se pierde. Me interesa trabajar la interacción de estos dos lenguajes, cuando se superponen, distancian o entrecruzan significados. \nEn mis paisajes siempre aparece el universo del bosque y las aguas. Ambos símbolos de inconsciente, mi naturaleza sale en una búsqueda de sentido, una resonancia de la imagen poética que nunca termina de decirse. Paradójicamente, en mis retratos siempre estoy atenta a la historia del quien está frente a mi cámara. \nEn cada uno de mis ensayos, la relación imagen/texto es distinta, cada intersección es particular. Storm in the garden es el diario de una relación, las imágenes son retratos de la persona amada y el texto es mi voz. En La costanera, cada retrato va acompañado por una historia, muchas veces, las palabras surgieron en la toma, otras, son historias más laterales. El río lleva y trae todas esas voces. \nTrueno de agua en un largo poema, antes que las palabras fueran palabras, antes de que fueran encadenadas al discurso. De la misma manera, las imágenes se escapan del eterno referente que necesita la fotografía, imágenes de las cosas antes que fueran nombradas.

Before entering university, he decided to travel and explore the world, an experience that would have a profound effect upon his photography. During his travels, he was intrigued by the depth and breadth of the cultural differences he discovered, and by the norms and values which seemed in such stark contrast to those absorbed in his early life in the Austrian Alps. \n\nStefan’s work stands out for its sense of curiosity and amazement, and its childlike wonder at the world. This is evident, for example, in his provocative photographs of the everyday lives of marginalised communities and the young musicians and artists they produce. Ethiopia, Kenya, Japan, Jamaica, Haiti, South Africa, Mozambique and Brazil, all became more than just places on a map or names on a young explorer’s list. His need to understand the communities he discovered on his travels, and what it meant to be human led him to a study of sociology and cultural anthropology. In 2013, he left London Imperial College with a Master's Degree in Public Health \u0026amp; Epidemiology.\n\nIt was his love for photography that helped him find his life's purpose. The camera became his most important tool of expression, and led him to develop his technical skills further with courses in photography at the Arts University of Bournemouth. It was, however, while participating in a photography workshop in Miami, hosted by Alex and Rebecca Norris Webb, that changed the way he sees light, colour and the layers of the world.\n\n\nIn a world desensitised by a constant barrage of shocking images, Stefan’s photography offers people respite from an unrelenting exposure to misery and suffering. In his intimate portraits of street children and former juvenile prisoners in Sierra Leone, he provides a reason to linger. His photographs declare that we have more in common as human beings than the superficial differences in our circumstances would suggest. Stefan's work is a delicate mixture of candid photography and planned portraiture. It is a work of patience in which he waits to capture that intimate moment in the everyday lives of his subjects, when they let down their guard and reveal their humanity.\n\nIt is Stefan’s intention that by bringing people into focus, places in Africa and elsewhere can move past a negative narrative and into a future filled with hope. Stefan is based in Dakar where he continues to work on personal projects and commissions, taking photographs that remind us of our shared humanity.\n\nPublications\nDer Spiegel, The Washington Post, The New York Times, GEO, The Guardian, BBC, The Financial Times,  Society Magazine, SoFoot - Soccer Magazine, British Journal of Photography; and freelance work for Associated Press, Bloomberg, European Press Agency,  ZumaPress, DPA.","user_id":50349,"name":"Stefan Kleinowitz","website":"www.stefankleinowitz.com"},{"id":12784,"bio":"Alberto Cicchini nasce a San Benedetto del Tronto il 2 luglio 1968.

My preferred method is to see and photograph, but not be seen.\n\nMy inspiration largely comes from the photographs of Henri Cartier-Bresson, the godfather of street photography; and the American photographers Eli Reed, Elliott Erwitt, Mary Ellen Mark, Lee Friedlander, Richard Kalvar and Garry Winogrand.\n\nPhotography projects have included a book of street photography entitled \"FAIR WITNESS: Street Photography for the 21st Century\" released in March 2015, a street portrait series called \"LOOK At Me\", a photo essay on the war ravaged Croatian city of Vukovar,  and a journal of European pissiors  which became my book entitled \"PISS\".\n","user_id":14358,"name":"David Lykes Keenan","website":"www.dlkphotography.com"},{"id":14589,"bio":"- Education at Ecole Nationale de la Photographie in Arles/France\n- Member of LAIF - Agentur für Photos und Reportagen   \n\nwww.laif.de\n\n- Working for:\nADAC-Reisemagazin -  MERIAN - Brigitte - FAZ - Feinschmecker - FOCUS – GEO Saison – GEO Spezial – GQ - Hideaways - Capital - Spiegel – Stern – SZ Magazin – Tour – DIE ZEIT - ect.
