solo show

“I am an image maker, the camera is just one of my tools”
Amsterdam - On Friday, December 9, 2022, the solo exhibition 'OUT OF THE WOODS' by multi talented artist, photographer and director YANi will open at the I love illustration gallery. For this debut show as an artist he made a series of graphic black and white nature photos that he manipulated manually with ink and pencils with a surreal and magical results.
YANi is not a photographer, he is an image maker and the camera is just one of the tools he uses. He started out as an illustrator but soon switched to photography to create his images. From fashion and portraits to advertising and cultural assignments. Always looking for a unique visual answer to the creative briefing. Lately he has been making series with his own briefing. The illustrative aspect always comes out strongly, sometimes even literally through the use of ink and pencils on the black and white photo prints. That is how the idea for this exhibition was born.
