Veka Koestinger

My name is Veka Koestinger. I was born in Oaxaca (Mexico). I lived in Spain and now I'm currently living in France. I'm 23 years old.
I've always been attracted by art, I believe it's my passion. I've studied cinematography in a club at school for three years. I've graduated from The School of Image Gobelins thanks to a Universal Music Studios scholarship, and now I'm at the school of fine arts of Nice, the Villa Arson. I've studied photography and videography and I've started taking pictures on my own for about 7 years.
Photography is a very interesting art that allows me to express so many different emotions and beauties, it also allows me to create new worlds.
I'm mainly inspired by my twin sister, the human body, people, the cinema, the lights and the absurd. I sort of have two ways of taking pictures. One is through the obsessions I have, like water, chiaroscuros, birds flying, the moment and more. Theses pictures are taken in the moment, its like i'm taking notes and observing what' s happening around me. Most of the time I observe, I love seeing people living and being. I find humans fascinating. The other way is by controlling everything that’s on the frame. I know what I want the picture to look like, and plan everythin...
