In his works, Alexander tries to capture the everyday scenes of a city, which also shape them under the typical weather conditions that prevail there. His works are difficult to assign a particular direction, it is most of a mixture of architecture, street, fineart and people. It is very important for him that the pictures tell a story, even if it is sometimes only a sentence, often using a human as a stylistic device.
I have the joy of being friends with this talented emerging photographer.
In her words… “Over time, photography has forced me to experience the world through a new lens. Light becomes everything. It dictates the mood and dimensionality of a scene. It makes mountains glow and leaves shimmer. It’s the difference between boring and dramatic. It can also be a source of annoyance to non-photographers if you prattle on too long.”

Local photographer Laurent Kronental has created ‘Souvenir d’un Futur’ since 2011. A series of stunning photographs documenting these neglected communities and capturing what he calls ‘the poetry of ageing environments’. He also explores the idea of the aspirational ‘utopia’ design contrasted with the neglected state they are in today, by consciously conveying the impression of towns that have been left almost empty.

Maria Svarbova is a Slovakian photographer who has developed a distinctive style departing from traditional portraits to focus on experimentation with space, colour and atmosphere. Her interest in architecture and public spaces, usually build in the Socialist era, led her to create unique sceneries.
The human body in Maria's photographs is more or less a prop, without individuality or emotions. As part of careful composition, beautifully alien figures create still, dream-like scenes with ordinary objects. There is a silent tension, the drama is hidden under clean, smooth surface. Even in her more ornamental, nostalgic works there is a sense of cold detachment. Everyday actions such as sports or doctors visit are frozen in a moment and through Maria's eyes, given a new meaning. Soothing pastels, geometry and visual purity give a sense of otherworldly order, undisturbed visual pleasure that is unattainable in real life.
Through her photographs, Maria stops the time and shares her vision: she is not afraid to address the loneliness and isolation, nevertheless she chooses to celebrate its still, calm beauty.

His hyper-realistic work connects to specific places and calls into question the way recognition and narrative can often sway understanding and perception. He employs graphic materials, such as oil paint and graphite, which are often married with conceptual methods to bring the artist’s role into relief.

"I see in my photographic work a strong inspiration from science fiction topics like the visual language of Stanley Kubrick and Ridley Scott or motifs such as the feeling of abandonment and orientation in a suddenly unfamiliar desolate environment. I am looking for designs that stand out from their surroundings as strange or unnatural to reduce them to their minimum form."
