Photographer spotlight: Erik Skrinjaric (he/him)

bánh uớt (2026)

Erik Skrinjaric is a fashion, beauty, and product photographer. Driven by mood, styling, and lighting, his work explores how photography builds visual atmosphere and identity through design, composition, and tone.

Inspired by high fashion from a young age, his photographs feel cinematic, refined, and slightly edgy. Sculptural shapes, strong styling, and dramatic lighting are intentionally explored, treating photography with the same care as a fashion piece or visual artwork.

His working process begins with concept and styling. Favouring clean, intentional setups that highlight shape, texture, and colour balance, he stages clothing, beauty elements, and products with pose and lighting to bring their most distinctive qualities into focus. In post-production, tone is refined with subtle desaturation and increased contrast to deepen the mood while keeping the image polished and realistic.

In relation to “Ommatidia,” Erik’s dark aesthetics can be seen as one visual unit that contributes to the larger collective of perspectives in the exhibition. Rooted in fashion, beauty, design, and self-expression, his photographs add a distinct aesthetic to the spectrum of creativity. His works radiate a sense of striking confidence, leaving a memorable impression through photographic storytelling.
