Mare Milin
Past Artist In Residence
2006

“My artistic work has always been based on photographies of people, situations with them, selfpotraits. Sometimes, my professional tasks (mostly magazine jobs), turned out to be unexpectedly artistic. Therefore, unusable in the publishing business, but very helpful in my development as an artist. I like to take photo walks during which I take photographies of the moments, atmospheres, people on the way…

What excites me about photography is breaking the rules, using it as my artistic «weapon». I love playing with usharpness, film grain, contrasts, over and under exposure … there are so many rules to break.”
