Ishka Michocka makes her mark with deep and emotional images, creative concepts and photographic documentaries. Her nomadic nature carries her all over the world, from intimate portraits to open desert landscapes, from lost urban jungles to abstract patterns of aerial photography, her work capturing the beauty and intensity of the moment.
Experimenting with various materials, mixing old and new printing techniques, her work bears resemblance to traditional paintings and drawings with abstract blurs, layered shadows and distortions.
Her work has been exhibited internationally and sold to many private collections around the world.
