MXPRIVÉ
MXPRIVÉ is a Berlin-based photographer renowned for his artistic interpretation of architecture. Inspired by the sensual interplay of light, geometry, and texture, his work merges aesthetics, clarity, and the tactile qualities of surfaces into captivating visual experiences. Since 2016, as a self-taught photographer, he has discovered his unique passion for architectural forms and structures. Over the years, his focus has increasingly shifted toward architectural photography, where, since 2021, he has been exploring the aesthetics, character, and materiality of buildings through his art. His photography is more than merely capturing structures – it is a profound engagement with their essence. „As a photographer, it is important for me to immerse myself in the subject, uncover the building’s uniqueness, charm, and aesthetic, and reflect this in my images,“ explains MXPRIVÉ. He is particularly fascinated by the reduction and abstraction of forms, light, and texture – the core elements of his minimalist photographic art. His images invite viewers to experience architecture almost physically. “If a viewer feels the urge to touch my photograph, trace the forms with their finger, and sense the roughness of the surfaces, then I know I have done my job well and achieved my goal,” he shares. Since the release of his first photobook, GETTING CLOSE – TEMPODROM, in 2023, MXPRIVÉ has received numerous international accolades in a short span of time: •Best of Best, Architecture MasterPrize •Silver, Budapest International Foto Awards (BIFA) •Bronze, Prix de la Photographie Paris (PX3) •Finalist, Arte Laguna Prize Exhibitions in Budapest, Paris, and Venice have followed, further cementing his place on the international stage. With a unique balance of emotion and serenity, MXPRIVÉ creates photographs that not only document architecture but also transform it into powerful works of art – visually striking, emotionally resonant, and almost tangible.
