About Sophie
I’m a french freelance photographer and illustrator, based in Nancy (north-eastern France). After studies of Applied Arts and a few experiences as a colorist and drawer, I devote myself to analog photography. I explore different themes through this media, like the relation between humans and nature, nostalgia, expression of the self, but also the parallel between desolated places and solitude of beings.

Stanislas is a large pedestrianized square, dreamt up by Stanislaw Leszczynski in the 17th century, as a way to link the medieval old town of Nancy and the new town. It is paved with light ochre stones, and is surrounded by an architecturally harmonious ensemble of buildings, most notably The City Hall, the Opéra-Theâtre but also the Fine Arts Museum.

The marina Nancy-Saint-Georges is located in the heart of the city, 5 minutes walk from the Stanislas site.

La Boite à Photos is located in the heart of the old town, on a charming cobbled street. This is obviously a must for me, because there are all kinds of 35mm and instant films available for sale, but also second-hand Polaroid cameras and lomographic cameras. The store owners are themselves collectors and invested in the artistic Nancy's life, having organized a great photos contest last spring.

Istanbul born artist Eylül Aslan has started with photography at an early age as a way to escape the patriarchal system she was born in. Having been introduced to feminism and human rights by her politician and activist mother, she took on photography to express herself  and created a visual world of her own. Her art has taken her to Berlin, Germany where she continued to live and work for 5 years until recently when she finally moved to Vienna, Austria. Her work consists of a play with light and shadow, her fascination on the human body and different forms it takes. Her first two photography books Trauerweide (2014) and Dear Slut (2015) focus on feministic issues, while her latest book Trompe L'Oeil (2017) deals with the subjectivity of beauty, both for men and women."

I was born in St Petersburg, then, at 11, moved to Siberia where I have lived for 12 more years, graduated from a local university before returning to my hometown in 1998. I took various jobs there before finally turning to photography. From last August I am based in Moscow, a mad metropolis full of contrasts, energy and drama at every corner. In terms of urban design and architecture, many consider it a failed city, and you really have to know it from the inside to be able to appreciate its vibrance and dynamics. In this nostalgic picture (by Savva Bogatyrev), I am on a tram back in St Pete with my wife Veronika.

Throughout my practice, there is a propensity to capture an exact unit of time: a tear about to drop off a face, a swimmer’s cheek momentarily skimming the water, a point of suspension in a pas de deux. Time is my main interest. I think every artistic medium uses time in a different way. This is reflected in my preference for shooting with analogue film and producing hand-made prints, making each one the product of an intimate, time-consuming process. I like to create feeling in my photographs. Tactile, sensorial and often sensual, my work surges with human connection.
