Collection by Anna, Ryanny and Nickyashika
As known, muse is a person who serves as an inspiration to an artist. The word itself dates back to Greek mythology, with Zeus' daughters forming the nine Muses who presided over the arts and science. But as time went by, concept of being a muse was ruined. It started to feel like being a muse is like being in “use”. You pour your chest out in exchange for staying behind the scene or, at best, for a handclap. This collection is here not to dissolute a term of “muse”, but to reframe it into something more human, as a coming together of ideas between two people, into co-creation, into power and energy exchange.
Anna - Hi, my name is Anna. I capture love & light and explore humans & plants. I’m originally from Ukraine and I lived in China for 6 years, completing a Master’s degree in teaching Chinese. In January 2020, right before the pandemic, I came to Bali on holiday and spent there 3 beautiful years. Now I live in Lisbon, Portugal.
I have been taking pictures since I was in high school, so it’s been 13 years already. I was young and curious I had an old Nikon and a simple lens. I tried to take some pictures with that and quickly realized that I needed something else and I got a vintage portrait lens – and then my story really began. For me, photography is not about cameras, lenses and gear – photography is about people and a photographer. The pictures you take are the best reflection of the true you: your values and your philosophy. A camera cannot make a great picture just like a cook cannot cook a better dish just because of a better saucepan.
My values are freedom, love and unity; FREEDOM in everything I do; LOVE to my family, friends and to Mother Nature and to everything I do as well; and UNITY – I truly believe in the power of unity. We can all do a lot on our own, but together we can create a future of hope. I think these values are voiced in every piece of my art.
Ryanny Torna - is a Cuban photographer, has participated in numerous photography events and competitions, and has been awarded several national awards for his work. Although he has explored a variety of photographic styles, he is best known for his work in nude photography.
Ryanny's focus on nude photography focuses on the natural beauty of the human body and the artistic expression of nudity. His photographs are elegant and subtle, sometimes he touches on the dark art theme, with a focus on composition and lighting that highlights the human form and the texture of the skin.
Nikita - I am a photographer. I'm 34 years old, born and raised in Kiev, Ukraine. I've been shooting for more than 9 years with film using Leica-m cameras and lenses.
I give special attention to black and white photography, sometimes color, portraits, full-length shots. I prefer natural and constant light, frost frames, reflectors and smoke machines. Since childhood I have been inspired by artists and photographers. I prefer Amedeo Modigliani, Miroslav Tichy, Deborah Turbeville, Sally Mann, Helmut Newtone.
