Bio

Majo Jurčík is a Slovakian Fine Art and Commercial photographer. He got into photography at university, multimedia technologies, University of Žilina. The chosen bachelor’s thesis on the topic of „beauty postproduction“ and image coding of JPEG and RAW formats gave him the direction that photography will be the area of ​​multimedia in which he will really go in depth. Already in the beginning, he was able to impress publishing houses, magazines, celebrities… In 2010, his photo „Thirst for life“ was exhibited at Prague Photo in the best nude of the year. And what he was best at was defined. His endless inspiration is a woman, an inexhaustible theme is the female body, a celebration of female beauty from a male perspective. Rather, he perceives nudity as something extremely natural and free, rather than as something forbidden. However, it avoids showing it in the foreground. But as one giant of Polish photography says: What you see is who you are. He also tends to projects about female agility, the flexibility of ballerinas, figure skaters, and yoga models. In his works, pure beauty, sensuality, sophisticated provocation and also a hard-to-capture intersection of perfectionism and naturalness combine. A few years ago, it was discovered by an Italian gallery and introduced to the international art market. Currently, hundreds of his works are part of the private collections of all around the world.
