Mostyk

MOSTYK, visual artist and photographer, fuses her training as a professional ballet dancer with her background as a renowned make-up artist to shape a singular artistic approach. Author of best-selling books (400,000 copies), she then decided to immerse herself in visual creation, setting up her studio in Bordeaux. This winner of the 1st Canon 2023 Award, from among 10,000 candidates, is recognized for her talent and commitment to authentic images. Avoiding editing or retouching, she captures authenticity in every image, offering a handcrafted photographic art. Her passion for texture and light reveals timeless scenes, evoking the hidden complexity of reality. Her uniqueness is also evident in her meticulous choice of textured supports, manufactured locally to encourage a short circuit. She uses vegetable-based inks and eco-responsible materials, guaranteeing long-lasting, moisture- and UV-resistant works. Signed, embossed and numbered, her monumental creations offer an immersive tactile experience, where touch complements the visual aspect.
