Eduard Leven is one of the few well-known art photographers living beyond the Urals. He is one of those photographers who started off their creative career with classic analog photography. Now, upon successfully switching to digital era, he continues to develop his expressive language and philosophically explore the visual component of this world in this new capacity, applying traditional techniques.
The works feature natural elements, simple and eternal... Ice and water, wood and stone are constant "characters" of photo series of different years and exhibitions based on them.
