What is the element that simply catches one’s thoughts in a photograph? In Sasha Elage’s pieces, that element appears to be a feeling that somewhat and somehow, you have been already there – lived in the very fascinating moment when it was being taken and now you are a part of the story being told.
Born in 1980, Leningrad, the artist was raised between Lebanon and Russia by his Russian-Estonian mother and Lebanese father. According to Elage, his work has no literary or transcendental significance. The aesthetic elements, however, are crucial to elaborate – Optical trickery and inventive minimalism combined, his pieces contrast with traditional iconography.
What makes all of it more out there, is that Elage proudly applies no corrective methods to his photography. There is no editing process afterward: “It’s all straight from the camera”. These pictures are put directly to the viewer’s perspective without any digital manipulation or retouching. So we as gazers, end up with places and moments that are naturally but uniquely captured.
Marvin Leuvrey’s works are somehow technological and carry the concept of urbanity. The artist works with many different techniques and mediums such as analog, digital manipulation in photography, 3D, and video.
The project is focusing on introducing the new Saudi Arabia National Team Collection. Artists involved in the project created a kit launch for Nike Football and Saudi Arabia Football Team crafting bespoke Arabic typography for the Saudi FIFA team.
Silvia S Hagge’s Five Eyes series is a result of struggle and relationship with her glasses. This collection of photos is a result of her frustration and decided to take them off.
