The Ritual Photograph - Limited Edition of 9

"Idea, form, essence." Moga Alexandru is a self-taught photographer and graphic designer, born in 1981 in Sibiu/Hermannstadt, Romania. In his childhood, the vast and beautiful landscapes of the country captured his attention, then he became really interested in portraits, in capturing the many details of the human face. He also believes in body freedom, so that's why most of his photographs shows the human in its naked pure form: shapes, muscles, bones. His images spread from solitary shepherds, that live their life in the mountain areas, to friends and loved ones. With a wide range of expression - from the ones that are defined by simplicity of composition, to the ones that involve a much more complex preparation, in creating and also in post processing - the keynote of each artwork seems to be: observe, sit still, feel, be moved and leave what is in peace. Kogaion Art is another branch of MOGA‘s creativity. It started back in 2005 when the main focus was winter photography for the german band Vinterriket. In 2006 MOGA has decided to expand his horizons venturing into logo design. Since then, the logo “departement” grew strong until this day and it’s still adding new creations. From 2006 to these days MOGA has created hundreds of logos for bands/labels/stores. For more, visit his site.
