Giuseppe Lo Schiavo

Ad Vivum

Giuseppe Lo Schiavo uses the camera as a creative and limitless tool able to reproduce and convey his imagination, and considers himself as an inventor rather than a discoverer. He studied Architecture at the University of La Sapienza of Rome and specialised in Architectural 3D Visualization. After working for 5 years in a design studio in Rome, he decided to become a full time fine art photographer in 2013, after his photographic series Levitation received international acclaim.

Alexander Semenov

Underwater Wonders

Alexander is a marine biologist specialising in invertebrate animals. As a professional underwater photographer of nine years, his key specialism is scientific macrophotography in natural environments. This practice makes it possible to observe animals that cannot be properly studied under laboratory conditions, such as soft bodied planktonic organisms or stationary life forms living on the sea floor.

Gillian Hyland

Eyes Shut

Fine art photographer Gillian Hyland creates supernatural staged images, presented as film stills or dramatic moments. Her unsettling mise-en-scene are full of sex and desire, sadness and nostalgia. Narratives that are psychologically evocative – at once sublimely theatrical yet poignant.

Nathalie Priem

Snowscape

Nathalie loves working within the natural and unique constraints of a building or an environment to capture the energy and atmosphere of a place. She documents either design details or natural features, capturing the essence and atmosphere, to give the viewer a sense of what it is to exist in that place.
