Lia and Elvira
Lia
Lia Tee was born in Siegen, in a very unspectacular environment full of Hardware stores and free evangelical churches. After 7 years in Cologne, she moved in 2015 to Berlin. She bought her first camera (a Canon1800D) in 2017. Since 2019 she started to photograph a bit more professionally, in addition to her studies in the Comparative Literature and Film at the Free University of Berlin. Her artistic motifs are emotions, lack of emotions, strength, weakness, the human being in connection with his environment, ambivalence and tolerance of ambiguity, and, moreover, the apocalypse. Her pictures are often naïve, somewhat out of focus or blurry, imperfect. All from a feminist point of view. The models are often friends, the stories that are told are about contemporary processes and are often created with the help of Everyday objects, as if random and semi-improvised.
Elvira
Elvira Nisman, originally born in Moldova in 1989, has her artistic Gone and existence only in 2019 after some professional and adventurous stations found. However, her passion and dedication to photography has already accompanied her for a long time. Throughout life, above all as a visual medium for one’s own self-liberation and not most recently as a therapy. Elvira’s photographs deal with the themes of identity, more unconventional beauty, unspoken interpersonal relationships, emotions and Non-emotions.
On the one hand, her works are characterized by a minimal, clean aesthetic and on the other hand, by striking dimensions. She likes to demand uncomfortable things, unfiltered truths and depression and makes it through photography and writing to transform them into a very special beauty of their own. Her motifs are mostly people she happens to approach on her many travels, Models of all kinds, or even best friends who have their very own in front of Elvira’s lens. Telling history – preferably with a poetic, bitter aftertaste. Elvira works both freely and artistically in projects with social and societal background, as well as for commercial customers in the field of advertising photography. She’s freelance in Berlin, as well as ready for use worldwide.
