Sylwia Makris Written by Lucifer Divinitas There is an eerie wonder that fills my mind every time I look at the work of Sylwia Makris. If H.R. Giger had taken up Photography it would probably have looked something like this. The dark eerie beauty draws you into a strange shadow world. Where the elegant slightly disturbing images stay with you long after viewing. It's like staying the night in an creepy hotel, with the hair standing up on the back of your neck at every turn. This hair raising sensation is tempered with an elegant delight that keeps you mesmerized as it works its dark magic on your psyche. You find yourself anticipating the next photograph. Her images are best summed up by a quote from her website. “Her quest produces images that may delight or disturb but always move the beholder.� Sylwia Makris was born in 1973 in Gdynia, Poland. She worked as a sculptor before finding her way to photography in 2007. Today she lives in Munich, Germany as freelance photographer.
