Mayli Sterkendries

Personal background
Graduated from the Art School of Bruges in Video and Photography. After I moved from the seaside to this city, I studied photography for two more years at Sint Lucas School of Arts in Ghent.

Personal style
Worm's eye view with a mix of bright colors and black and white with a fine grain layer

A technical aspect that’s typical for him/her
I love to work with daylight and I'm not always following the rules of photography. Just like to play with different techniques. One of my quality characteristics is that I like to think that I can manage everything on my own.

Inspiration
Helmut Newton, Martinn Parr, Mous Lamrabat, Joel Meyerowitz, the people I collaborate with, my own ideas, fashionmagazines, videoclips and so many more

What does he/she reflect on once a day
How everybody is doing and if i still have enough food for the coming days -especially desserts-

With whom would he/she like to share an elevator
Jonah Hill would be my first choice if I had to choose someone to share an elevator with. If we would get stuck, I would at least be having fun. He's so hilarious”.
