Karto started her journey in the world of photography with a passion for portrait photography. The woman plays an important role in her work. About the album baroque diversity she says: “I photograph women from different ethnic groups and place them in a historically rich environment. I show them in all their beautiful colors, regardless of their rank and status. unthinkable in a period between 1700 and 1900. – (if you look at the overview of my work, one aspect stands out strongly. the influence of cultural diversity in my family, my friends and my life. in this album observations and memories of my childhood and current life play a major role in my work.)” With the album femme nomenal, she portrays women who have been stereotyped over the years as one-sided objects of desire. She gives them energy and emotion in a human, recognizable and sometimes in a humorous way. They are women who have been placed in self-confidence and self-control by a female artist. Being your own boss and not suffering from stereotyping over the years. Women placed in situations that we recognize. Sometimes in a different role that can seem a bit uncomfortable but is experienced with a wink. Since 2013, Mariska Karto has had several solo and group exhibitions in galleries and photo festivals worldwide, from Europe to China to the United States. Since 2011, she has won well-known photo awards, worldwide, and several publications have been written about her work.
