Emil Rashkovski is a photographer based in Sofia, Bulgaria.
His work includes outdoor, documentary and conceptual photography, research, installations.
Emil is particularly interested in man's connection with the environment and the marks we, humans, leave behind. He likes to rediscover the surrounding world through his lens and vice versa, to develop his photography under the influence of the environment. The process involves long study of themes, repeated exploration of locations, selection of specific conditions.
