Photographer Heros

Rebeca Barbosa

Christoffer Relander
Christoffer was born in Finland, 1986. Relander first
discovered his passion for photography while
serving in the Finish Marines in 2008. His series We
Are Nature is surreal images based on the
relationship between man and nature. to create
these incredible images Relander uses a Nikon
D700. this camera is prefect for his work as it has a
multiple exposure feature. This allowed up to nine
separate exposures to be combined in the camera.
Relander takes pride in the fact that he does not
use a digital manipulation to create the final image.

Alberto Seveso
Seveso is an illustrator and digital
photographer. He was born in Milan in
1976. He has worked on high profile
brands like: Adobe, Nikon, Sony and
Disney etc. He has had no design class
or a degree in the subject. Seveso is
self taught, he began in the early 90s
using graphic software like deluxe
paint and Photoshop.

The artist Alberto Seveso has

created this image as part if his
a due Colori series. Mixing two
inks together in water and
capturing their interactions at
high speed photography. I like
the fact that he is able to take
the photo just as two colours are
about to mix. He puts the ink
against a white background to
make sure there isn't any
distraction. The swirly pattern
makes the image look more like
it has been stopped in time. The
texture of the ink is soft and it
seems like the ink is floating
down. I like the interesting
shapes this ink makes when it
comes into contact with the
water. another thing I admire
about this image is the surreal
mood it has to it.

In this series Ritratto di una prefetta sconosciuta (porttrait of a prefect

stranger). Here he uses a technique called sperm shaping which he
created. It is a unique blend of vectors, colorizing and portrait photography.
The swirly patterns add elegance to the image. He constantly chose to hid
some parts of the face creating mystery to each piece.
I like the fact that Seveso follows the structure of the face/body when
creating his vectors. Thia make the image look more harmonic as both parts
fit together. Another thing I like is the drop shadow added to some of the
layers within the image. This is because it creates a 3D effect making the

John Clang
Clang was born in 1973 in Singapore.
Clang fascination on time,
displacement and existence influence
his work. He has a total of 27 different
short series. In 2011, he was the first
photographer to receive the designer
of the year awards at the president
design award.

This series time is all about the

recording of a location, to show the
passing of time in a montage style. I
like the fact that he manipulates
time, the location is the same and not
much changes but it is the people
that change how this location looks.
Clang uses a filter; it creates the
sense that the picture is older than it
is. this adds to the element of him
playing with time. Another thing I like
about his images is the he portrays
how a person can share one space
