About me
Iztok Klančar (1980)
Photographer
Based in Utrecht, The Netherlands
* * *
I am a visual essayist, working primarily with photography. I am searching for the meaning of being, dealing with identity in the Western world. While retaining my seemingly casual visual approach, the images I make are a reaction to the feel of a place or someone’s personality.
