ABOUT | Ondřej Tichý

Born in September in a town where time stopped. Originally, I was brought to photography due to my fascination with the landscape of the native Elbe region, its specific genius loci and my interest in the history and spirituality of these places. Over the period of flirting with abstraction and many other genres, thanks to my studies at PhotoGenia in Brno, over time, I expanded the spectrum of my photographic preferences into an area that I up to now had consistently avoided … people.

Educational Background

My original education is an electronic engineer and I received a photographic education at PhotoGenia Institute in Brno. I must also mention the photography courses organized by Antonín Lavrenčík in his “Ateliér v továrně”, which helped me to improve my photography craftsmanship.

Membership in International Photographic Organizations

Since July of 2020 I became a member of Czech Federation of Photography Art (CFFU) which is an exclusive partner of PhotoArt magazine and official representative of FIAP in Czech Republic.
Since the end of October 2020 I became a member of Photographic Society of America (PSA).
