Catalin Marcu

Using photography as my primary medium, I’m working using light and shadow as developers for my subjects and ideas. My practice focuses on geometry, form, texture, and rhythm, transforming visual observations into works that evoke emotion.

My artistic journey began with early explorations in drawing and design, later finding a strong voice in photography and, more recently, in mixed-media work. Influenced by masters such as Imogen Cunningham and Edward Steichen, I’m merging the timeless aesthetics of classic analogue photography with a refined contemporary approach.

During the latter years, I’ve expanded my practice to further incorporate mixed-media techniques into my work, resulting in new artwork pieces, alongside my photography work. These handcrafted methods introduce unexpected textures and color harmonies, which I’m integrating with photographic precision.

With over 16 years of experience in both artistic and commercial photography, I’m striving to bring deep technical mastery and a consistent artistic vision to every project.
