With a camera in my hands, I’ve pursued a much more intimate visual relationship with the world than I might have otherwise. There is so much beauty around us in color, form, texture and motion, and through photography I’ve grown to appreciate life in an emotional context that never ceases to amaze me.  My photography journey began while I was serving with the Army in Vietnam in 1969-70. I carried a small point and shoot film camera, documenting my experiences during the war. I took my first photography classes in college while studying geology and natural resources management. My career began as a Park Ranger working for the National Park Service for several years, mostly in Yosemite. I eventually moved to the San Francisco Bay Area where I worked for the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency for the next 22 years.  A career dedicated to protecting our natural resources and the environment, as well as a passion for outdoor adventure, molded my photographic interests over the years.

After working in retail sales and kitchen design, Tom jumped at the chance to dive headlong into photography in 1995. He completed the intensive 10-month program at the Hallmark Institute of Photography in Turners Falls MA. A business as a commercial photographer ensued for the next several years.\nTom eventually shifted his attention and camera’s viewfinder toward the mysteries of reflections in water, glass, ice and metal. An artistic passion was rekindled and regional exhibits followed. His style focuses on hidden Illusions and abstractions that surround us.

From 1997 to 2002 I studied photography in the class of Prof. Arno Fischer at the University of Applied Sciences and Arts Dortmund. Again and again my photographic projects revolve around the lives of teenagers and young runaways in various places around the world.\n      As a traveler, as a person setting out into the world, I wanted to leave behind the narrowness of my bourgeois origins. In the distance, the traveler meets others setting out, searching, wandering. \nIn my case, these were often people without a fixed abode, children and young people with the focus of their lives on the street. They had achieved what I had always dreamed of, leaving their parents behind. Even though their freedom was close to the opposite, the predicament of survival, I admired the radicality of their decision. \nWith the same empathy I accompanied female migrant workers in China who had broken out of the confines of the patriarchal regime of the village, which reserved the chance of a future for the eldest sons. For them, migrant work also means the chance for emancipation and self-determination through their own income. \n     These experiences shape my approach to documentary photography. I am also travelling in first person and have met such exciting people who pursue their dreams under sometimes most difficult conditions that it would be far from my mind to reduce them to a victim status. My pictures do not celebrate misery and nothing is further from their minds than the tears of the viewer. Instead, they are open and multilayered. The viewer's gaze can wander between different levels or jump back and forth in irritation. Delicate colors, familiarity and closeness meet a harsh reality that sometimes only emerges from the context, small details or the ambiguity of a gesture.\n\nI am a Berlin based photographer.

Focused and precise, as a young athlete Monika was a member of the Austrian international gymnastics team, qualifying for the World Championship. She went on to earn two master’s degrees and a PhD in the history of science and cancer biology. More recently, she attended an education for photography by prestigious Magnum Photos \u0026amp; Spéos in Paris, France.\n\nAs a photographic artist, Monika is a seeker whose work blurs the boundaries between fiction and reality. Now based in Vienna, Paris and a small village in Switzerland, her image making is a thoughtful union of what she sees and finds in the world “out there” married with the conceptual storytelling and exploratory ideas that drive her inner life. Many of her images are 3D as she investigates a layered, handmade dimensionality that pushes the boundaries of the flat photographic surface and offers yet another level of engagement for the viewer. \n\nMonika frequently conjures a mental, miniature novel about someone she sees in the street, ultimately creating ephemeral moments of a self-invented story. Her work tends towards the mysterious, the porous, and the bittersweet, whether it is through the honest, ongoing non-judgmental collaboration with her mentally unwell sister or through her layered, cerebral exploration of identity and the masks she wears, using herself as a vehicle for this universal theme.

On the other hand, he doesn’t lose sight of his artistic ambitions and is always looking for new and surprisingly compelling shots.His ground-breaking  “Nightshots,” begun using film photography, builds on his Academy experience of shooting long exposures that emphasize the phenomenon of the night itself more than the subjects of the shots. Schwier explains that the nocturnal scene reduces an image to its barest meaning, since the most essential things are already lit; but almost as an afterthought, his long-exposure shots also succeed in bringing light into otherwise pitch-dark corners and niches, uncovering the strangeness of time and moment.Schwier is the recipient of major prizes and awards, including the DG Bank International Photography Award.","user_id":18450,"name":"Marcus Schwier","website":"marcusschwier.net"},{"id":714469,"bio":"Leysan Karimova (born 1982, 42 years) is a Russian-Finnish photographer and costume designer based in Helsinki, Finland.

His images (meant to stand on their own even among a series or group) is therefore highly subjective and suggestive, and is consequently often dreamlike in its feel, relating more to atmosphere and mood in an anonymous setting than to any specifics. In this way he uses photography more like painting and certain cinematic expressions and its relation to the inner world than as a way of documenting an objective reality.

He has been also awarded in some photography contests\nMy childhood had been influenced by war.The life situation in Iran as an ancient country of the Middle East which was involved in war, economic, and political crisis gradually brought about some questions about human and his inner soul in my mind, like when the man is in hard conditions, what will he reveal from his personality? How does he confront with the passions that occur to him in life? What is that inner element that makes him a distinct and unique being? The trace of these questions becomes more highlighted under natural catastrophes like flood, earthquake or while situations made by human interference like war, revolution, social and political conflicts and poverty. It was a question for me that how the man reveals himself when he faces with freedom and pinches. How does he step toward freedom? How does he interact with his environment? All these questions were occupying my mind while facing with ethnic and religious traditions. When I began photography, my camera became a tool for surveying these questions. I learned that it is possible to ask question with camera and overwhelm deep in the question likewise it is possible to think deep in humans’ faces with camera. The questions do not end in answers but also bring more questions along with themselves. And this is how my attitude to the photography takes form, with asking and moving toward humans’ depths and their environments.","user_id":20603,"name":"Farhad Babaei","website":"www.farhadbabaei.com"},{"id":19411,"bio":"The photo artist Harf Zimmermann, born in Dresden in 1955, lives and works in Berlin.

That is at the heart of Dutch photographer Maarten Vromans' (1975) work and methods. Whenever Vromans travels from one place to another – be it on foot, by boat or by train – he methodically records the altering terrain that passes him by. This could be the eroded buildings in an anonymous urban setting, but also the untouched landscape of a remote region, or the infinite distance on unspoiled open water.\n\nVromans likes to move through transition areas: the no-man’s-land between residential, commercial and working environments; between built-up, cultivated and untouched areas. There, in places that apparently no longer belong to anyone, he makes photos that are tranquil, abstract and picturesque, and in which the subject always remains recognisable.\n\nAt the start of his career, Vromans’ photos were published in New Dutch Photography Talent (now known as GUP New), an annual publication showcasing the work of one hundred upcoming Dutch photographers. Since then, his work has been featured in both online and print magazines such as Aesthetica, Broad and Creative Boom. \n\nIn recent years, Vromans’ work has been shown at fairs and exhibitions in Rotterdam, Amsterdam, The Hague, Budapest and London, among others. After a successful crowdfunding campaign, he compiled his ‘Lucky Shots’ series into his first photo book in 2018.

Her still and moving images often challenge the familiar perception we have of the world, and can be seen as a bridge between the world we live in and a more surreal and dreamlike dimension. They are like metaphoric voyages or reveries through time, place, memory and perception where genres such as narrative and performance are expanded through visual and temporal transformations of represented reality. More recently, her work and approach to photography has moved away from figuration and narration towards abstraction and the deconstruction of representation. She has also integrated digital technologies in her process as a way to explore the limits of the medium and to engage a dialog with other mediums such as painting, moving images and performance.\n\nHer work has been featured in international publications such as The New York Times Magazine, The Sunday Telegraph, Dazed \u0026amp; Confused, Le Figaro Magazine, The New Yorker, Eyemazing, Next Level, EXIT and many others.
