Michael Eckart
Description
Michael Eckart has spent significant time in Japan, Bali, and other parts of Asia, but Venice now feels like home.
From a young age, he aspired to be a photographer or designer, always drawn to creativity. However, these passions did not take center stage in his career until much later.
In the 1960s, he began designing window displays and creating objects for visual merchandising.
During this time, MoMA requested some of his designs for an exhibition on contemporary design in New York. By the late 1980s, the scale of his creations changed as he transitioned into jewelry design, working with materials such as buffalo horn, bone, and especially sterling silver.
In 2016, his son gifted him an old camera, reigniting his passion for photography.
In 2024, he entered his first photography competition and achieved
success.Try it!
