Jac Kritzinger was born in the lush wasteland of 1970's South Africa. A wandering lightsmith, workaholic and dinosaur toeing the viper line, his lens always aims to venture beyond the layers of collective reality, revealing something deeper, darker, more ethereal and sublime. An edgy, stylized aesthetic - however stark or subjective - remains a key element in his work, suggesting that it is through beauty that the connection with a world often lost in plain sight is restored. The language of light ultimately illuminates all, within and without, and in this regard he might be described as a poet first and a photographer second.
