Biographie de Marc Kiska
Né en 1983, Marc Kiska a grandi près de Saint-Etienne en France et vit actuellement en Norvège. Il écrit ses premières nouvelles sur les chaises d'école. À l'âge de 20 ans, en cherchant à illustrer ses écrits, il se tourne vers la photographie et en fera son métier. Photographe inclassable, il affine sans cesse les nuances de son art, entre sensualité, violence, poésie et mystère. Son sujet de prédilection, tant dans son travail photographique que littéraire ? L'adolescence, sa quête de liberté et d'authenticité, et le fracas contre la pression du conformisme.
En 2017, Marc Kiska publie Les Vestiges d'Alice (Editions Tabou), premier roman pour lequel il sera lauréat du Prix du roman gay 2017.
Roman qui vient compléter ses publications photographiques dans la presse internationale et un premier artbook, Outlandish /ROOM/, édité par l'artiste en 2014.
En 2021, une ultime édition de cet artbook, enrichie de cinquante inédits, paraît chez Abstractions.
Born in 1983 and raised near Saint-Etienne in France, Marc Kiska currently lives in Norway.
As a teenager, while in class he writes his first short stories.
At twenty, and looking to illustrate his writings, he turns towards photography and makes it his profession. An uncategorizable photographer, he constantly refines the nuances of his art, between sensuality and violence, poetry and mystery. What is his favorite photographic as well as literary subject? Adolescence: its quest for freedom and authenticity, and its ultimate failure in opposing conformism's pressure.
In 2017 Marc publishes Alice's Relics (Editions Tabou), his first novel for which he is awarded the 2017 Gay novel prize.
The novel now completes his body of internationally published photographs, as well as a first Artbook, Outlandish /ROOM/ published by the artist himself in 2014. In 2021 the Artbook's latest edition expanded with fifty additional unpublished pieces is released by Abstractions.
