My inspirations are many and diverse, with the most important of these being the Bible. Other sources included myths and legends, as well as classical art from the Renaissance and Middle Ages.\u0026nbsp;\n\nI started working on my Women of the Bible book series in 2013, and soon realized that because of the endless array of powerful Biblical women in these stories, the project could last for many years to come. As it is well known, there are no ‘unnecessary’ words in the Bible — meaning every single name bears strong significance. Working on Women of the Bible, allowed me to dedicate much time to my own study and knowledge of the Bible.\u0026nbsp;\n\nThe work begins with focusing on one singular character, followed by comprehensive research and collecting of materials. I begin by reading the source, and then explore literary works and even poetry surrounding the characters and situations. The materials I use to study lead me to creating motifs, which lead to further depth and development. Most of the photographs involve me combining recreated scenes, with added touches and flourishes from my own imagination.\u0026nbsp;\n\nThe dresses are created directly on the models, using fine fabrics stitched together. The most complex of the photographs involve animals usually, due to the unpredictable nature of their behavior. And by the end of a typical day capturing these scenes, we usually all have scratches and bruises — but it’s all worth it, the sense of satisfaction of a productive day’s work is incomparable.\u0026nbsp;\n\nThe landscape of the Golan Heights, where I’ve made my home for the past 17 years, are the setting for most of the photos. The mountains majestically change based on the time of the day, as well as the season. During the summertime, the scenery is dry, wild and primeval. During the winter, the mountains are covered with an intense greenery that injects life into the surroundings. Sometimes I have to be patient and wait several months for the right moment, to capture the perfect frame to express my vision.\u0026nbsp;\n\nI’m eternally thankful for the opportunity to be able to capture powerful women of the bible, through this unforgettable journey of religious photography, devotion and expression.","user_id":265670,"name":"Dikla Laor","website":"diklalaor.photography"},{"id":266260,"bio":"Jonathan Dayman’s self-taught photography has progressively developed since his  first camera - a Box Brownie, at age 10 – to its present form which currently centres on landscapes and how human activity impacts them.\nHis style is often geometric, with strong graphic forms.

I am a Polish camera-based artist who has been living and working in Norway since 2008 and has called the Arctic home since 2020.\n\nPhotography has always been my medium. It is quiet, precise, and full of contradiction. A photograph holds what is gone. It saves a moment, but makes it impossible for the moment to return. Photographs seem to show the world clearly, but they shape, select, and sometimes hide it. I am drawn to this tension. It mirrors the dualities I live with.\n\nI start with thought, not image. Sometimes a word or gesture stays with me, and I begin to ask questions. I research and bring overlooked perspectives to the forefront. The idea grows quietly while I do other things. Most of the work happens before I take a picture.\n\nI take a few pictures, sometimes only one. My editing is sparse. My work is minimalist, often high-key, and utilises negative space intentionally. Stillness and space are my language. What I leave out matters as much as what I show. I use both analogue and digital methods, choosing the one that best fits the idea.\n\nThe Arctic is an underlying theme in my work. This place faces constant pressure from geopolitical, environmental, and social factors. It also holds quiet and resilience. My experience echoes that. As a Polish woman and immigrant in Norway, I have felt the weight of being overlooked. I have had to prove my worth in places where I do not fully belong. Like the Arctic, I hold both pressure and space. I photograph what resists spectacle: the overlooked detail, the quiet gesture, the still presence.\n\nTwo lifelong projects anchor my practice. “Through the Norwegian Air” is about breath, space, and presence. It examines what happens when visual noise is removed and there is room to breathe. The series utilises the Norwegian landscape as a setting of stillness and vastness, where the air becomes a subject. This project stands in opposition to a culture dominated by spectacle.\n\n“The Dictionary of Arctic Homes and Shelters” is different. It examines how people define home and shelter in the Arctic today, influenced by climate change, geopolitics, and shifting traditions. It moves between documentary and the intimate, combining scientific and geographic views with abstract images, sound, and text.\n\nMy photographs do not explain. They hold space. Viewers sometimes tell me they feel they could step into them, as if there is room for them, too. That matters to me. My work is not about finding answers, but about creating space for questions, for presence, for what we notice and what we let remain unseen.","user_id":378991,"name":"Marta Anna Løvberg","website":"www.fotograf-lovberg.no"},{"id":270613,"bio":"I feel in love with photography at the age of 6 years old.

To show the world what I see and convey my emotions through my photography, things that don’t come easily to me otherwise.  In my photography I like to capture moments that speak to me, giving me a taste of something spectacular. I want to convey a sense of being in my photography.

Eugene Smith learned the hard way that photography could be too easy, a matter of making expert images of interesting subjects. \n\nHe set himself to learn the truth – about himself as well as his subjects. In the process, he produced a series of photographic essays, for LIFE and other publications, whose passionate involvement set a standard for what photography can be. \n\nGene Smith was a loner, a driving and driven man, who bucked the system of which he was a part. Some say he sacrificed his career, and himself, on an altar of self-destructive idealism. When he died at the age of 59 in 1978, he had $18 in the bank. But his name had become synonymous with integrity. His work was his memorial.\n\nWhy, then, a memorial fund in his name? Those who knew Smith knew also that he needed friends at critical times. Many photographers today are working against the fashions and economics of modern publishing. \n\nThe Fund was established in 1979 to seek out and encourage these independent voices. In the first thirty years of competition, from many thousands of proposals, the Fund selected 303 finalists who were seeking help in finishing major projects. Each was worthy of a grant. Between 1980 and 2009, thirty-two recipients from fourteen different countries were recognized.\n\nIn one way or another, a finalist must approach Gene Smith’s own high standards. “I am a compassionate cynic,” he wrote, “yet I believe I am one of the most affirmative photographers around.

I’m particularly drawn to street photography, where the colorful and humorous slices of everyday life come alive. Most of these spontaneous, snapshot-like images are taken with my mobile phone, which adds to the raw and playful essence of this style. My black and white photos emphasize the dramatic interplay of light, shadows, and form. These images aim to transcend time, evoking contemplation and reflection.\n\nI’ve coined the term \"Neopictorialism\" to describe my unique approach, blending photographic realism with abstract, painterly qualities. By softening sharp details and adding artistic textures, I aim to create images that feel timeless and evocative. This approach allows me to move beyond mere representation and explore the emotional or dreamlike aspects of a scene. My goal is to blur the line between reality and art, inviting viewers to contemplate both the image and its deeper meaning.\n\nIn addition, I enjoy creating digital montages where I combine different photos and elements into a single, cohesive image. These montages allow me to layer perspectives, textures, and scenes, resulting in visually rich compositions. I use this technique to explore various aspects of reality, distorting or enhancing it to tell a more complex story.

And like Kerouac, the artist uses those experiences as a vessel in the attempt of defining the cultural and psychological undertone that makes up the USA.   The series often depicts its characters in an equal mix of longing and dread - a longing for the idealism that made up the 20th Century, and the dread of continuing forward into the unknowns of the 21st. Using New Mexico as a backdrop, the series becomes a critique of John Gast’s American Progress, where we find its characters in the liminality of the middle class, in search of the American Dream.   The chosen 16x9 aspect ratio, vivid colors, set locations, and the poetic look at these character’s psychological state are all used as a reference to American culture. In its totality, it becomes a lived immersive experience of Americana, where even the photo titles reference music from our American Golden Age. And just as the series blends autobiographical and fictitious elements, we also see a blend of poetry and narrative. In that regard, the visual story has the potential to grow and evolve with the lived experience of its characters, in relation to the ever-changing cultural shifts in our nation. "},{"id":292209,"bio":"Hasselblad Masters 2021 - Finalist - Portrait \nArt Limited 2022 - 2nd Place - The Elegance\nCreative Photo Awards 2020 - 1st classified - Fashion\n35Awards 6th - 3rd Great Photographer in Fashion / 100 Great Photographer of The Year\nFine Art Photography Awards 2020 - 2nd Place Winner - Portrait\nAll About Photo Awards 2020 - Particular Merit Mention\n Art Limited 2020 - 1st Place - Fashion \u0026amp; Magazine Awards\nOne Eyeland Photography Awards 2019 - Bronze - Fine Art - Portrait\nOne Eyeland Photography Awards 2019 - Bronze - Fine Art - Other\nChromatic Awards 2019 - 1st Place in Conceptual \nChromatic Awards 2019 - 2nd Place in Fashion\nInternational Color Awards 14th Annual Edition - Honorable Mention - Fine Art\nHellenic Photography Society 2019 - HPS Gold Medal for The Best Creative Photo of the Year\nFelix Schoeller Photo Award 2019 - Shortlist in Fashion \nFine Art Photography Awards 2019 - Fine Art 3rd Place Winner\nV Concurso International De Fotografía ‘Alicante’ 2019 - 5º premio: 200 € y Mención de Honor de la FLF\nMoscow International Foto Awards 2018 - Gold in Beauty Advertising \nMoscow International Foto Awards 2018 - Silver in Fashion Advertising\nMoscow International Foto Awards 2018 - Silver in Fine Art Advertising \nMoscow International Foto Awards 2018 - Bronze in Beauty Advertising \nInternational Photography Awards 2018 - Honorable Mention In FineArt\nEyewin Awards Photography 2019 - Silver Medal in Conceptual \nEyewin Awards Photography 2019 - Silver Medal in Fine Art\nEyewin Awa","user_id":291607,"name":"Peyman Naderi","website":"www.peymannaderi.com"},{"id":291833,"bio":"I'm a Street Photographer from  Myanmar.\nMy name is Maung Thaw Aung (Thaw Aung).

Living and working in London as a Lecturer and Practitioner. I have worked for over 25 years in education whilst raising a family. Lecturing part time now gives me the time to concentrate more on my own practice. Although I am 60, I consider myself to be in the early stages of my career.\n\nLandscape, memory, portraiture and place have established themselves as the predominant themes in my photographic work.  Drawing on my experience as a woman and a mother is an integral part of my work. Parenthood does not function as an obstacle to making art; but is an additional material to be mined. ‘Light Interiors’ portrays the home as an archive, the artefacts are not documents but instead distilled memories. \nThe constructed Landscapes in ‘The Understory’ and ‘Progression’ are and non-literal reactions to the natural landscape and the imperative balance that needs to be addressed to protect and conserve the planet. The negative spaces and portals within the images are intended as a pause in time, an interval, creating an opportunity for a new perspective.\nLens-based, cameral-less, analogue and digital processes are all part of my image making. The large-format monochrome portraits contrast with the immediacy of their digital counterparts. The formal portraits in ‘Progression’ exploit the slow and deliberate process of large-format, changing the relationship between the photographer, the sitter and the spectator. The ritual formed between the three parties creates a complex interplay of power, positioning and performance. \nThe large format 4x5 camera allows me to experiment with a range of papers to create hand coated paper negatives. Awagami and Hahnemuhle papers are used  to create the in-camera negative and the positive print.  Moving away from silver-based chemistry and experimenting with organic developers and toners is an important part of my practice.\n","user_id":299092,"name":"Maura Jamieson","website":"maurajphotography.com"},{"id":362611,"bio":"Visual storyteller.

He is a winner of international grants and has exhibited his work in China, Germany, and Austria. He is an innovative digital artist, the originator of the Blurglass Abstract photo style, and a skilled visual improviser.\n\nPhilip Rabachev was born in Leningrad, USSR in 1981. In 2016, he developed an experimental approach to photography, using coloured glass in shooting and post-processing in Photoshop. The glass surface atypically refracted the familiar outlines of a person, adding a touch of fairy-tale ambiguity to the portraits. Endless experiments with texture and materials gave birth to Philipp’s unique style and made his works recognizable and distinctive.\n\nPhilip aims to completely transform the approach to photography and turn it into a new visual art, where the camera doesn't play a major role, but ideas, concepts, and improvisation become more important. The author consistently challenges himself with the question, \"What if?\" and easily overcomes various obstacles, becoming bolder in his projects, while skillfully maintaining logic even in the most unconventional shot.\n\nPhilip's works have been exhibited in various countries around the world, including at the NordArt contemporary art exhibition in Büdelsdorf, Germany (2019) and at the international exhibition Beyond The Lens in Beijing, China during the Winter Olympics (2022).

In 2022, his series 'Composition', in which he made portrait studies in collaboration with homeless people, was shown as part of the group exhibition 'Rauw' at Museum Het Rembrandthuis in Amsterdam.\nMilan Gies' work consists mainly of portrait studies and sculptural studies. He is fascinated by 'the narrative body', the way experiences, pain and complexity leave their marks. He often works with his portrayed subjects for long periods of time, building a bond of trust that allows him to get closer, literally and figuratively. An autobiographical element is always present in his work; thus, in the portrait studies, he looks for a convergence of his own experiences with human vulnerability and those of the people he works with. Symbolically, the often falling and struggling poses contain universal themes such as pain and survival. In his choice of subjects, he prefers people who, for whatever reason, cannot keep up well in our performance society or feel like outsiders. His images are often stripped of context as much as possible, sometimes even by depicting people partially or completely undressed, and almost always in a simple studio setting.

I picked up my camera after years of not daring to use it (having gone from film to digital) then one day decided I needed some brass, and I needed to justify leaving my kids from time to time to work for not just the money but to show them you can do something you love for a living. \nI have this grand plan that if I can that I will do a whole project dedicated to 'working mothers' , a series of images that represent a whole host of amazing inspiring mothers I know and create a book or exhibition for it. \nI have always loved my Magnum books and spent hours in the past admiring the work of those photographers.

In January 2014 she was forced to leave her home and hometown due to military events in Donbass. In such conditions photography has become a salvation for Ms. Grom and a way to escape from a traumatic reality. Since 2017 she has lived in Bucha. As a result of the full-scale invasion of Russia in February 2022, Grom and her family became refugees for the second time. Alena Grom works at the junction of social reporting and conceptual photography. She works on her topics on the front line.  However, her photos are not illustrations of pity or grief, they are an affirmation of life.  Life against the odds — one of the main themes of the artist.\nAlena tells about the war through a subjective experience associated with cultural memory, through a creative reassessment of her own life, as a documentary evidence of events.\nAlena sincerely believes that art is a force that can encourage people to participate in a public dialogue.
