TITLE: The figure on mountain

One of the photos form my homeland. Precisely from the top of the small mountain where I used to stay most of my time as a kid. When the photo was made I shared my memories with my girlfriend.

AUTHOR: Josip Miskovic (Italy)

I was born in 1982 in Bosnia and, following my studies and various travels, I moved to Italy - to Tuscany, specifically - where I still live.
After working for several years in the entertainment industry I decided to pursue my passion for photography, a field I have always had a great fascination for, eversince my training in painting and set design.
As a self-taught photographer I tried to develop the language which might be able to capture the ultimate essence of reality. Photography interests me as long as it tells something that requires the photographer to be open-minded and to reflect on a peculiar face, on mysterious structures, on people's stories, and on hidden fragments of human intimacy.
I received various international awards and recognitions: In November 2020 i was awarded by Dan Burkholder as a first place of NYC4PA photo contest, In the last 4 years I also won first place for three times in "Shoot the frame" and, after that, another first place in Photo Crowd’s "Amateur photographer-sigma"; first place in the black & white category of “I shot it” photography competition, second place as nature photographer in the "Trans-natura" photography competition. Many times I was mentioned and commended in various competitions such as "Sony world photography contest", "Ipa", "Nd", "Monochrome awards".
My most recent achievement was first place in the black & white category of “I shot it” photography competition.
In February 2020 I launched "Galleria Ambigua" in the historic city center of Arezzo (in Tuscany). It is a contemporary art gallery and a cultural space, of which I am co-director and founder.
