My name is Valentin Mici. Born in Romania, raised in Gelenau, and since 2014, I have been living in Chemnitz, which has now become my home. For the past five years, I have been deeply dedicated to black-and-white photography and the development process in the photo lab. I consciously chose against commissioned photography because I prefer to shape my work freely and independently—in every sense.

Discovering photography as a means of expression fills me with enthusiasm, as it gives me the opportunity to influence my work. Not only at the moment I press the shutter button but also in the photo lab, where I have the freedom to further refine my ideas until the result matches my vision. I am open towards cooperation. Some of my photos are for sale.
