About

 Iryna Vozniak (b.1990) is a photographer and visual artist based in Kyiv, Ukraine. In 2013 she earned her master's degree in International Law from the National Aviation University, Ukraine. Her passion for photography led her to the Kyiv School of Photography in 2022, where she fully immersed herself in enhancing her skills. Photography quickly became her primary focus and creative outlet. She continues to advance her studies at the Form Photo Academy (Paris).

In 2023, Iryna's works  won gold at both the Budapest and Tokyo International Foto Awards. Her photographs have been showcased in exhibitions at the Glasgow Gallery of Photography in the UK, the Blank Wall Gallery in Greece, the House of Lucie Budapest in Hungary, and the House of Lucie Athens in Greece. Additionally, her works have been selected by the curators of Your Daily Photograph, Artdoc Photography Magazine and Photo Vogue.

This year, her photos were featured in the book "100 Ukrainian Contemporary Photographers," published by a French publishing house. The book was presented at PhotoBasel and the photo festival in Arles.

Through her lens Iryna captures the profound beauty embedded in both the grandeur of nature and the simplicity of everyday life. Celebrating color and shape, she invites viewers to rediscover the extraordinary in the seemingly ordinary, urging to pause, observe, and find art in the tapestry of life that surrounds us.
