Exploring Subcultures and Authentic Beauty Through the Lens of Contemporary Photography

Stig De Block (b°1990) is a (fine-art) photographer who’s cultural referenced practice is inspired by heritage values. Especially when working in a contemporary fashion landscape which comes and goes, intent, passion and realness are his building blocks.

His story driven approach is a constant interaction between the everyday real and layers of his own imagination. With a strong interest in subcultures, his images reflect a contemporary realm of authentic and explicit beauty.

In 2022 he premiered his debut project Back to Back From Backyard to Boulevard.
