  • Brooke Shaden

    Brooke Shaden

    Brooke Shaden was born in March of 1987 in Lancaster, PA, USA. She grew up near the “Amish Country” until attending Temple University. Brooke was photographically born in December 2008 after graduating from Temple with Bachelor degrees in Film and English. She now resides in Los Angeles, California, with her husband and two cats.

    She began creating self-portraits for ease and to have full control over the images, and has since grown into a self-portrait artist. Self portraiture for her is not autobiographical in nature. Instead, she attempts to place herself within worlds she wishes we could live in, where secrets float out in the open, where the impossible becomes possible.

    Brooke works to create new worlds within her photographic frame. By using painterly techniques as well as the square format, traditional photographic properties are replaced by otherworldly elements. Brooke’s photography questions the definition of what it means to be alive.

    “Few photographers of any time or place have matched Sally Mann’s steadiness of simple eyesight, her serene technical brilliance, and the clearly communicated eloquence she derives from her subjects, human and otherwise – subjects observed with an ardor that is all but indistinguishable from love.”
    – Reynolds Price, TIME

  • Anna Bodnar

    Anna Bodnar

    Bodnar was born in 1982 in Poland. She’s a philologist and a computer graphic artist. Presently, Bodnar is a joint owner of an advertising agency. Since March 2008 she is also a member of an Association of Polish Art Photographers, and from 1 January 2011 member of Royal Photographic Society.

    Visual art has always interested Bodnar; according to her, it shows more than words can ever do. Throughout the years, Bodnar has been looking for different artistic ways of expressing herself. She sees photography as a method to understand herself; to understand other people. Her usual sources of inspiration are her day-to-day life and literature. Bodnar’s work and art expresses who she is and therefore, she is very emotional about it. She uses regular photos, as well as different processing software programs for her graphic works.
