All about me

Born in 1968 in Budapest (Hungary).
Living in France since 1999.
Double nationality French – Hungarian since 2006.

After an art carreer on the field of art mosaics (www.mozaikart.org) and web design, i have learnt the technics of photography in an self-educated (autodidact) way for becoming a professional freelance photographer.

Since the 90′s my passion for travelling has increased with the interest of photography but unfortunately i could not permit myself to buy a performant camera in a financial reason. I am equiped for taking high quality photos only since 2000. As the most part of the people, i started with landscapes and urban subjects but on the way, in the course of time and experiences, my interest has rased towards details, objects and especially portraits and human kind. In 2008 i have decided to equipe myself with studio stuffs and i have started to work with modells in opening new perspectives on the domain of art photography. Today, even if the human qualities and physics (masculine nude, sensuality, etc.) are my favourite subjects, i do not want to categorize myself because beeing opened means having so many opportunities in this work.

I use Canon EOS 400 D camera with reflex digital technology. I am member of the Maison des Artistes (French Artists’ Association) in Paris since 2006.

 

MEMORANDUM

To meet the greatest…

Sebastião Salgado is a Brazilian social documentary photographer and photojournalist, he is now one of the world’s greatest photographers.
I had an opportunity to meet him in Rennes at a reception of the city mayor, i am honored by that possibility. As we set near each other, we could exchange some thoughts, his humaniste personality and modesty just confirmed my very positive opinion about him and his work.

PROJECTS

I have a lot of ideas, it is just a question of time…

I have created a text for my photos of Madagascar, i have constructed a model of a journey diary and I would like to make it published in Hungary as a book. I am waiting for the editor’s confirmation at the moment. You can see some pages of the book, please click here !

I have the same project related to some poems of a Rumanian friend (poems soon translated into French). The book will be illustrated by artistic nude photos with a misterious atmosphere playing with the light.

I have two new projects for the category “Celebrities”, the themes of the Piéta and the Guernica.
I am planning to developpe an urban series too, more exactly around the reflections, instances, probably to be edited in sepia.

In continuing of my ethnographical series (Kayans and Akhas in Thailand, Hmongs and others in Vietnam, Semang Negritos in Malaysia, Sakalava people in Madagascar, Zapotec and Mixtec Indians in Mexico, etc.), a real passion of mine, I hope beeing able to visit Indians’ villages of Brazil in Amazonia soon.

Amoung my technical plans, I intend to change my camera for a more advanced one, as soon as my financial situation will allow it.

I still have to study methods of exhibitions and framing, trying different type and quality of papers, editions on canvas, glass, transparent resin and metal, optimal sizes (cutting), etc.
