Denis Popoff,

Swiss based photographer who currently lives in Lugano.

Born in Belarus, he left his native country due to the homophobic dogmas of the state.

He has got into the photo in College of Advertising and Design in Brussels.

His work is mainly focused on human body, portraits as well as stage and backstage pictures of cabarets and theatres. He is not interested in showing beauty as an outward phenomenon. Rather his interest is to picture the human being as a whole: body and mind reunited.
