CV

Maxim Shapovalov
Professional photographer.
Born: Oct. 5th, 1968 in Moscow, USSR

Statement: 
As an artist, I believe in ever changing beauty of life. I believe that earth and all the creatures living on it must thrive and prosper. I use my mastership and experience to reflect that. I believe that true artist can avoid grotesque expressions. It became a common practice lately, to use fear, sex and human parts as an artistic trend. My projects are opposite of that. Children laughter, wisdom of elderly, spirit of the young - this is a story I'd like to tell.
