DINA GOLDSTEIN b. 1969 Tel Aviv, Israel

 

Dina is a photographer and Pop Surrealist with a background in editorial and documentary photography. For Dina photography is intended not to produce an aesthetic that echoes current beauty standards, but to evoke and wrest feelings of shame, anger, shock and empathy from the observer as to inspire insight into the human condition. Dina independently produces large-scale tableau photographic series that are philosophical, satirical, technical and visually stunning.
