Yani

YANI is not a photographer, he is an imagemaker, the camera is just one of his tools. Started out as illustrator but quickly used photography as tool for his imagery. From fashion to advertising and cultural images. Always searching for an unique visual answer to the briefing of the assignment. Lately he's been shooting a wide variety of series by his own unique briefing . The illustrational aspect is always there and sometimes even literally through the use of pencils and ink on the photoprints. During the preparation for an LA show (Water&Bread) at Building Bridges Gallery, he ‘saw’ this girl. Lost in time, lost in LA. And he created The Perdu shots.
