CELESTIAL FALLS - NORTHERN LIGHTS GLOW Print

My name is Artjom Kutuzov, and photography is my way of seeing, feeling, and capturing the world through light, shapes, and textures. I work at the intersection of documentary and fine art photography, preserving fleeting moments that leave a lasting impression. My journey began when my wave photo was published on 1x, later featured by Photopoint and Delfi Estonia. At 16, a gallery noticed my work but doubted its authenticity. Despite proving authorship, I faced rejection, which became a turning point. I stepped away from public photography but never stopped creating. At 24, I was invited to collaborate with the government, presenting exhibitions in a renovated park in Tallinn. Seeing people engage with my work reignited my passion for sharing my vision. While working with international brands and corporate clients, I continued experimenting and evolving as an artist. In 2022, my photos won recognition at the Autori Foto contest in Narva, earning a prize for a wave image and jury mentions for drone shots. Later, one of my works was published on PhotoVogue (Vogue Italia), marking a significant milestone in my career. Today, my photography is a search—for light, lines, textures, and emotions. I strive to convey more than an image: a story, an atmosphere, a moment. My work has found an audience and collectors, yet my journey is just beginning. I welcome collaborations, new projects, and galleries that see photography as an art form that inspires and evokes emotions.
