"My future pictures have never left me.
they are always somewhere near".

Russian based artist, Anton Bundenko is an exception in more ways than one. Unlike many other creatives, Bundenko has not had any formal education in fine arts nor has he lived in a city that enabled him to connect with individuals in the field. Yet is work is saturated within the creative realm.

Through the power of technology, he has shared his art work through social media. harnessing the ability of the online sphere to engage a new audience and each international acclaim.

With a background in engineering, Bundenko brings something new to his photography; the ability to place imagery in abstract ways yet make perfect, and beautiful sense.

Collage and GIFs, or what Bundenko calls 'new contemporary collage', is what he specialises in with his work featuring in magazines such as Another and U+Mag, as well as collaborating with designers on cookbooks and producing personal artwork. Bundenko sees no limits and traverses all boundaries.

His fashion imagery is also stunningly beautiful, with his photographic skills bringing something iconic to them, and always stamped with his signature carefree style.

Whether simple images, or images where the background is smothered in colour, collage or texture, whatever Anton Bundenko captures is magic.
