About

Omay was born and raised in England. From a young age he loved to explore his surroundings, capturing and embracing the movements of the world around him. Even today, he is still hidden away exploring with tones, textures and spaces - always with his 35mm in hand.

In describing his photography he carries a carefully selected collection of words, each having a profound influence in this work.

  • Concealed

  • Tangible

  • Subtleties

  • Imperfections

  • Isolation

  • Intimacy

  • Atmospheric

  • Discreet

 

Omay resides and works in London, although travels often to Paris.

 

 

" I often perceive myself as disconnected from the world, as though a sheet of frozen glass stands before me— concealing me behind its reflective surface. After many years, I have come to realise that it is through photography that I am finally able to reconnect with the world.

Although these reflections remain a constant presence in my life, I have learned to accept them. They have become a vital means of self-expression. Through this sense of disconnection, I have learned to translate my experiences into my work, allowing me to deepen my understanding of both the world around me and myself ”
