Elizaveta Porodina
Art Series 2025
ELIZAVETA PORODINA’s LARGER-THAN-LIFE BANNERS AND VIVID PRINTS OF NYCB’S DANCERS PUSHED THE BOUNDARIES OF MODERN PHOTOGRAPHY IN HER 2025 COLLABORATION WITH THE COMPANY.
Elizaveta Porodina is a renowned photographer and artist based in Munich, Germany, whose work often features surreal, symbolic narratives, blending fashion, fine art, and documentary influences. Her background in clinical psychology shapes her work with the complexities of the human experience, using photography as a medium for exploring the subconscious mind. Working in a diverse range of styles from dark, cinematic portraits to vibrant, dreamlike compositions, Porodina’s photography invites the viewer to embark on a journey through time and space, drawing them into deep, sometimes ambiguous, worlds.
Porodina has been commissioned by top global brands like Armani, Dior, CHANEL, Carolina Herrera, JoMalone, Hermès and Jean Paul Gaultier. Her editorial photography has appeared in VOGUE, Vanity Fair, GQ, and many other international magazines. Over the course of the last decade, Porodina has opened several solo exhibitions around the globe. Her latest at the Fotografiska Museum under the same name as her first book, Un/Masked, has travelled from Stockholm to Berlin, Tallinn, New York City and is currently in Shanghai. Her collaborations with artists like Brad Pitt, Zendaya, Cate Blanchett, Bella Hadid, Hoyeon, Kylie Jenner, Maude Apatow, Jodie Comer, Nicola Coughlan, Ariana Grande and the Artists of New York City Ballet further showcase her interdisciplinary approach to visual storytelling.
