Career and life
Emy Kat was born in 1959, from a Middle Eastern descent.
He is contemporary photographer whose large body of work has been built over several decades. Developing a love for the medium at an early age, he started photography when his father gave him his first camera at age 12. His father was a dedicated and talented amateur in photography and was the first person to influence and encourage him. He went on to refine his craft in USA and received a graduate degree in 1997 from the Brooks Institute of photography[1] in Santa Barbara, California, (USA) with exceptional academic achievements and honors along with awards in Advertising and Creative Excellence.[2]
Kat began his career in fashion photography, portraits, commercial advertising and is now mostly concentrating on fine art.
Kat's work is full of contrasts and extremes. It's either subtle and subdued or loud and ecstatic. His passion lies in capturing and recording motion in an image. "Capturing motion in my work reflects life itself"
His portraiture and fine art work include notable and intriguing people such as:The entrepreneur, founder of the Hard Rock Cafe in London and the House of Blues in Los Angeles Isaac Tigrett; model/actress/philanthropist Shannon Elizabeth; and model/philanthropist Petra Němcová.[citation needed]
The artist is included in a number of private collections and his iconography work (Nude studies on Platinum - Etudes Nu femme), describing the superiority of the woman in her creation, is a permanent collection[3][4][5] and is archived by the BNF Bibliothèque nationale de France (2000). The collection is under Reference number Ep-4001-Boîte pet. fol.(Collection Publiques).[3][6]
Emy Kat's work is published in various magazines including Harper's Bazaar, Russian Vogue and Elle Decor. He was also featured in advertorials for brand names such Missoni in 1997.[7][8][9][10]

Film vs digital
