Photographer

Marta Łącka

When I was tweleve, I discovered my mother’s old Exakta Varex camera with a 50mm lens and ever since that moment I’ve been shooting.

I feel my true mother tongue is imagery over word.

In 2004 I graduated from the Photography Department at the National Film School in Łódź. My main areas of interest include portraiture, editorial, and creative photography.
I began my career as an assistant in a fashion photography studio. After a year I’ve begun conducting my own photoshoots and prepared lookbooks and creative campaigns for leading Polish designers,. I also create and direct short film forms. My diploma photo-animation illustrating the story „Please Do Not Blame Anybody” by Julio Cortazar was included in the Multimedia Collections of Józef Robakowski. My two films for the “Autism: Start Early” charity campaign were shown at the „Heal the World” comptemporary exhibition at the Museum of Art in Łódź MS2. I have also shot a series of short films for the “One iPad Per Child” campaign, as well as a series of music and advertising videoclips. Last year I started my own photographic project entitled „Redefined by light” which was exhibited in Paleta Bieli in Łódź and in Zatoka Sztuki in Sopot.

Now I am working on a portraiture project entitled „Masters of a puppet”.
