Artist and Photographer

Elsa Kostic was born in Paris in 1990. She still lives there, except when she is in one of the corners of the globe. After graphic design studies, she decided to express herself through photography. As a dreamy and nomad person, she enriches her creativity by traveling and encountering new culture. It allows her to tell personal and spontaneous stories in her own raw and poetic universe.

I was born in Moscow, Russia, but was always fascinated with traveling and meeting new cultures. After several years in Vienna, Austria, I decided to move to Paris, France, and study professional photography. Before making this choice I started career in history of art.  These days I work on different long-term projects, mostly concentrated on fine-art and documentary photography. Camera helps me to observe the world around and to keep in time people, beauty and happy moments. 

Paris based art director, graphic designer, ceramist and a member of a collective that I co-founded called gangster
