Stella Gere is a photographer who mines her immediate environment for the raw, unpolished moments that define human experience. With a focus on the body, both its fragility and its strength, Stella is intrigued by the idea of the body being the original site of reality. She uses both a digital camera and a 120 film camera to photograph her subjects.

Through her work, Stella delves into the complex narratives of combat, vulnerability, and resilience. Through the lens, she captures the intensity of Muay Thai boxing—where defeat, glory, and bloodshed intertwine as well as intimate portraits of friends bathed in light and immersed in water, evoking moments of emotional surrender.

Equally fascinated by the commodification of the body, Stella challenges viewers to
confront the exploitation and objectification inherent in the meat industry through a
series of provocative fashion-style images. This body of work reflects an ongoing
exploration of human existence.

In this exhibition Stella’s photographs try to capture euphoric and surreal moments that incapsulate this feeling of dreams and distorted reality. Drawn to the sybarite, a person who is self-indulgent in their fondness for sensuous luxury Stella tries to capture human moments that look beyond the materialistic world.
