LIGHT PAINTING
PHOTOGRAPHY

Limited edition prints:
Classic still life photography
with a touch of the unexpected

My name is Vadims Pjatrikovs.

I am a still life photographer and light painter. My photography journey began in 2005 when I received my first camera as a gift and started studying photography as a skill.

What makes my style recognizable today is this special painterly look of each photograph. Every piece is full of mystery, magic, experimentation and has a really dramatic and atmospheric look and feel.

I invest a lot of thought, time and effort into every art piece I create. I combine all my previous experience with what I see, hear and sense in the world every day. These ideas are then shaped into a sketch, from which I then craft and place the individual physical objects for my composition with the utmost care. And then spend hours and hours photographing this all - in near-complete darkness.

Each art piece is full of details. You can look at the artworks again and again and find something different each time. They encourage you to think deeper about what you see - a classic still life with a touch of the unexpected.

REVIEWS

Nicola Shipley
Director of GRAIN Projects, UK

“You’re a master of light. There is something very beautiful in the way how you use light. You’ve conveyed all of these peculiarities of 17th century oil paintings in your work. I think the work is absolutely right for collectors, for people that are in the market for fine art photography.”

Karen McQuaid
Senior Curator at The Photographers' Gallery, UK

“To be honest, your work totally floored me. I was awestruck. I have not seen images that impactful in years. My mother has called me “Punkin” and I feel like I need to have your image “ALBINO” and I would love to display it at my shop. Thank you.“

“It seems to me that they are eminently collectible, there is a potential for them to sell very well.”

“I’ve just bought this from PHOTOPORTRAYAL.
So Special. A bit of joy amongst some less useful things going on. Stack up the joy folks! It’s lovely, very special, and the colours are amazing.”
