Photographer Spotlight: Laura Makabresku

Laura Makabresku is a Polish born photographer who has achieved a cult status over the past two years through her mystical, sometimes unnerving but always calming collection of photos.

When she was 16, she began writing poetry as a way of exploring her emotions and expressing the way she was feeling to the outside world. Although a poet at heart,  Laura felt the need to go beyond the silence of poetry and find a tangible way of exploring deep and emotional issues. That is when she picked up a camera and started creating the most wonderful works of art.

Her work is deep and powerful whilst at the same time having a sense of calm and fragility. This contrast is a signature style of Laura Makabresku and it is why I have fallen head over heels in love with her work.
