Epiphany
Title:Epiphany
It has nothing to do with religion, rather artistic epiphany. Digital photo collage made of my own imagery. All objects shot separately, masked, reassembled and manipulated in Adobe Photoshop.

Biography: I was born in 1984 in Kherson, Ukraine. I turned to photography in 2009 and learned everything by myself - studied composition, shooting techniques & best practices. I developed my own methods and approaches and in 2011 produced my first decent photo collages. Negation of a conventional reality and meditation enabled me to unite seemingly opposite concepts and ideas in my creative space. So, my photographic experience embodies a synthesis of mind and aesthetics, a fusion of surrealism and Zen Buddhism, logic and sensitivity, European rationality and a cosmic element of the East.
