George Griefy’s emotive portraits

George Griefy is a young photographer who loves creating dramatic and surreal art using emotive portraits to evoke his intense visions, in an atmosphere full of darkness, fear and nostalgia. Regarding the naked human body as art itself, he has grown a certain love for it, experimenting and showing its emotional side. “It’s impressive how many things you can do with just a camera and a naked body and how easily you can demonstrate purity, innocence, freedom and beauty. This attraction comes from the Renaissance era, where Fine Nude Art came to the forefront representing a timeless ideal of humanity. Both Baroque and Renaissance Art have always been great sources of inspiration for me.”
