Dino Kužnik Through time and space

New York photographer seeks solitude in a rapidly-changing world

Dino Kužnik is a New York-based photographer, originally from Slovenia, Europe. He uses photography as a medium to immortalise aesthetically unique scenes, which emphasise composition and colour. One of the driving factors behind his personal work is solitude, a state of mind which, he believes, is only attainable after total immersion within the environment in which he is working.

With seven years experienced as a photo journalist, retoucher, and graphic designer, he focuses on expanding his personal body of work and commercial projects ranging from artistic portraits, automotive, landscape, fashion, and documentary photography.

“I love to return to spaces I have already photographed. To see how they change through time. A new crack in the road, a dried bush in the distance... Like us, the landscape also ages.”

Kužnik’s work is featured as the latest part of a new collaborative series from UK publisher Setanta Books and London’s Open Doors Gallery that showcases the work of a broad range of emerging or previously unpublished photographic artists.

The self-titled work is the fourth in a series of short-run publications which will feature a new artist bi-monthly.
