MENTLV is an independent, documentary portrait project I’ve been creating since 2014.

It started as a personal exploration — walking the streets with my camera, stopping strangers, following instinct. Over time, it became something much bigger. More than 700 men have taken part in the project, and each one adds a new layer to the story I’m trying to tell.

In 2025, MENTLV is entering a new phase.
The project is evolving — with deeper conversations, short interviews, a growing body of work, and plans for a book and an exhibition.
Because to me, it’s never just about how someone looks — it’s about presence. About how a man sees himself, and how he’s seen.

I’m drawn to that space between the public and the personal, the image and the story. That’s where MENTLV lives.
