PAULINA OTYLIE SURYS





I was very honoured to have some of my taxidermy called in for a photo shoot with super talented photographer Paulina Otylie Surys a while back for The British Journal of Photography's September Issue:

Photobucket

I met Paulina and her lovely friend Nicolas by chance at Andrew Ibi's birthday bash at Apartment 58 back in June, and was immediately captured by her passion and charismatic charm.

Paulina comes from a family of doctors/surgens so we gushed for hours about the wonders of anatomy and Paulina's recent visit to a morgue to view a human dissection/autopsy live.


She and Nicolas work closely together to forge beautiful still life gelatin prints that are each hand painted and developed by Paulina. 

She has just released a book of her work titled "LIMBO" and I fully encourage you to check it out.
