Sivan Askayo

Like most of my fellow photographers I can also start my Bio and say that the first fond memory of myself as a kid was discovering my dad's Pentax and Nikon cameras and the excitement I felt when he let me use it for the first time at the age of six. I have always been a Nikon girl and carried it with me. At first as I felt being an 'extension' for my dad's passion, followed by my wish to document my surrounding and my own personal path. I have been living in New York for the last 9 years, where I've earned a Master degree in Communication and Marketing and been constantly involved with the ICP, International Center of Photography. I photograph what I love; Kids, Food, Travel, Street Art and as a City Dweller, I also photograph the dynamics of the places I am in. My work has been exhibited nationally and internationally and I've been involved with emerging Artists groups both in New York and in Tel Aviv.
