Imagine a world where light dances with emotions, and colors are audacious brushstrokes on a lens. Welcome to the visionary realm of Sasha Elage.
Born at a cultural crossroads, spanning from Russia to Lebanon, Sasha, a self-taught marvel, discovered photography at the age of 24 and realized it would be a lifelong passion. While many artists resort to post-production to refine their works, Sasha dares to stand apart: each shot is a direct explosion of creativity, unedited.
Though his foundational training began in communications and the world of fashion, Sasha has always looked beyond. His influences, ranging from Otto Steinert to Edward Weston, have helped shape his unique style. But it’s not just the technique that strikes; it’s his philosophy. “I am an emotional awakener,” Sasha states. And his shots prove it. Whether it’s an overexposure of light or a play of colors through colored flashes, his photos are a journey, an experience, an awakening.
His love for art knows no bounds. “We need more art in our lives,” he contends. And he lives by this creed, aiming to inspire and push the boundaries of traditional photography. Sasha stands as living proof that art has no limits and that with the right passion and vision, anything is possible.
From his acclaimed “Magic Island” to the mesmerizing streets of Naples, Sasha continues to surprise and elicit emotion. His advice for budding artists? Be surprised by yourself and foremost, create works that interest you.
An artist. A vision. A revolution in contemporary photography. This is Sasha Elage. And his story has only just begun.
