THE SPEAKERS:

KEZZYN WAITS

http://www. kezzyn. com

Andrey Kezzyn, on the internet better-known as Kezzyn Waits, is a creative photographer based in St. Petersburg, Russia. He is a teacher and training instructor at the St. Petersburg Photography Academy. He has developed an unconventional and distinctive approach to both, the topics that he imprints into his photographs, and the technique that he uses.

Kezzyn focuses on careful preparation of the scene that is to be photographed; starting from selection of a location, make-up and costumes, to the lightning conditions. The single-frame shooting itself does not last long and the post-processing in Photoshop is minimized.

The question of his photographic style Kezzyn usually answers, that he considered himself as a „pre-postpunk“ photographer. His large-scale photographs are characteristic with provocative, morbid, even aggressive motifs, that are, however, only a shell under which there is a hidden world. A world of mysteries, of basic instincts, of archetypes and symbols, a world that disturbs us; a world that will not let us simply and calmly observe the pictures, but that will make us think about, balance and doubt all the ideas that are historically and socially given, and their meanings. Kezzyn‘s pictures wake something that we would rather keep sleeping.

DINA BOVA

http://www. dinabova. com

Dina Bova is a world-renowned avant-garde artist, seeking new ways in art photography. She was born in Moscow and came to Israel with her parents when she was 13 years old. She started from classic photography during her travels around the world in 2007. In her early photographs she tried to “seize the moment” in someone’s life and document the events in the surrounding world. But, at some point she felt constrained by classic photography and turned her camera from the outside world to the inner world. She started creating her own world of subjective reality with her camera and computer. Today, her artworks are far from classic photography and remind paintings of Renaissance period and at the same time neo-surrealism.

ELMAR DAM

http://www. elmar-dam. nl

Despite his young age, the work of photographer Elmar Dam ((1976) now covers a broad field and he rejoices in assignments of artistic and fashion magazines and advertising agencies where his work is regularly exhibited and published. The free work of Elmar Dam reflects the rich imagination of the artist that lies within the photographer. The ideas for the pictures of Elmar occur more than once in dreams or come from inspiration from everyday events. As a great example, Elmar sees the work and ideas of Gaudi. The shapes, the imagination, the greatness and madness; it pops off of there! In this aspect of visual storytelling lies the challenge for Elmar, telling the story of one frame. The detail of images creates a shoot that Elmar needs much preparation and it often occurs in the night hours. Expression of reality is subordinate to the surrealism he chooses. Elmar challenges the viewer to form his own thoughts on each frame from what he deludes. He lifts the veil just slightly and allows the viewer to catch a glimpse of his surreal staged world and thereby to form his own idea. What preceded the moment and what future can know it? This so-called open end in the storyline of Elmar Dam creates an image that the viewer triggers.
