BIO
Kalina is a Polish born, London-based photographer, filmmaker and creative director.
Kalina started taking photos and making films over a decade ago, before focusing on fashion styling and creative direction. Assisting stylists and creative directors such as Edward Enninful, Karen Langley, Lucia Liu to name a few, she developed a strong work ethic, an eye for detail and got to work in the UK, US, Europe, and Asia with some amazing artists (Frank Ocean topping that list). As her career progressed, she became more drawn to storytelling and the magic of working closely with her subjects in a multidisciplinary way, which eventually led to her shift towards lens-based media. Since then, Kalina has shot short films, music videos, press shots, campaigns, lookbooks and branded content.
Kalina uses her creative process and deep understanding of the craft to allow room for improvisation and chance. She’s passionate about team culture and creating space for her collaborators to flourish. Her work explores the spectrum of human emotion within micro and macro communities, highlighting people, places and scenarios that might otherwise go unnoticed. Her visual style can be defined by a bold and meaningful use of colour and a blend of analogue and digital processes. She often plays with the confines of the frame, be it the literal confines of the camera or the limits of the set, grounding her characters firmly in reality. She also has an affinity for reflective objects such as mirrors and cars.
She is currently finishing her first photobook ‘LF5TL GLZ (Lifestyle Goals)’, an investigation into the relationship between cars, socio-economic status, class and community. Her short film ‘Tender Loving Care’, which depicts the experience of loneliness in a big city, was shown at Cannes Film Festival last year as a part of the Straight8 showcase, and the extended version of it is due to premiere later this year.
Kalina is available globally for campaigns, commercial projects, editorial assignments, short films, and workshops.
