<h3><img src="http://www.missaniela.com/gfx/miss_aniela_wol2.jpg" border="0" alt=""/> </h3><h3>Biography</h3><p>Natalie Aniela Dybisz, aka. Miss Aniela, was born in Leeds on 26th July, 1986, studied English, Art and Media at college, worked as a journalist for the local ethnic media, then moved to Sussex to study a degree in English and Media, which she is studying at the moment.</p><p>Her liking for photography has intensified in the last year and become the vein of her arts ambitions. In the past she has taken casual self-portraits, not thinking it was a dignified activity, but now, has wanted to breathe life into the colourful filmic ideas in her mind that she expresses through multiple \'selves\' in imaginary dreamland worlds using digital imaging.</p><blockquote>"I consider photography to be the ideal aesthetic way to express an idea, and to me, the most attractive medium."</blockquote><p>It was in Natalie\'s first year of university that she started to share images on the internet - showcasing her family and community pictures - her newspaper shots of the multicultural community of West Yorkshire, and of various trips abroad - Poland and Jordan, animals and Brighton beach, which echoed the journalistic feel of her newspaper shots.</p><p>Encouraged by the work of other self portrait artists on the internet she took up using cloning again, (she had tried it a year or so before) digitally manipulating images. She took advantage of her rural Sussex surroundings, matching outfit to location in composite after composite: by rivers, walls, fences, horses, a Seaford boat, a green telephone box, even a dolls\' house; the guest room bathtub, an oak chest (one of the most popular images) the garden bench, even draped on the car.</p><blockquote>"It gave me a wonderful escapism from my difficult emotions at this time. I went to bed still throbbing with ideas, jumping up in the morning without breakfast to try out more ideas that I\'d been envisioning in the night."</blockquote><blockquote>The great thing about sharing one\'s work in Cyberspace is that it is a complete package: one showcases your work, but learns from others\' work too. It is as enjoyable to upload new work as it is to see new work from my Cyber \'friends\'; likeminded amateurs male and female all across the world. Looking at others\' work is never a chore; other people\'s work can provide such inspiration for your future work.</blockquote><p>Natalie wants to continue making self portraits, become increasingly skilled at photomanipulation, and in the future work as a freelance photographer and get involved with whatever linked artistic opportunities she can, whether than be advertising, gallery exhibitions, freelance photography, or setting up a studio.</p><blockquote>"I can\'t help feeling as if the Cyber-experience is kind of a phantom purgatory stage for something more palpable in the future, such as holding an exhibition or having a book published.</blockquote><blockquote><p>"Sharing my work on the internet gives me an excellent idea of what the audience-demand is from an artist like myself (my clone shots mainly.) I know that I want to retain some magic and individualism in whatever I create in my career, otherwise, photography will become a chore, which is not what I want. Exhibiting online is the driving force that keeps me making new images. I cannot imagine what other forum I would have used to disseminate my images. The Internet is more than a medium; it is what got my photography moving forward. Without the Internet, I doubt I\'d be doing this, because there wouldn\'t be a forum so easy to access. It has activated my great passion for photography."</p><p></p><p></p><p></p></blockquote> |
