ABOUT

 

Ebony Finck (b.1987) is an Australian-born emerging photomedia artist. The fragility of human existence and psyche is central to her practice, which examines the transient nature of life and our emotional landscape. She has explored these universal themes via the landscape, animal and human form.

After completing her Advanced Diploma of Photography in 2015 at Photography Studies College Southbank, she divides her time between her own practice and commercial projects in Australia and the USA.
