Ferry Mohr is a German photographer and art director. He currently lives and works between Bologna, Berlin and his hometown Düsseldorf. His career in the advertising and fashion industry has led him to look closely at and enhance the entire creative process from start to finish.
His approach is to subtly intertwine the languages of art and fashion by staging compositions with analogue photography and almost exclusively natural light. Or rather, he likes to build a studio lighting setup that is soft and ethereal. His immediate surroundings have always inspired him, whether it's the majestic glow of the Rhine outside his Düsseldorf studio or the mist of the Po Valley and the rolling hills of Bologna that seem to permeate his abstract landscapes. This is sometimes evident in Mohr's use of motion blur to cast his subjects or models into a haze, a liminal space between abstraction and figuration. His work explores the boundaries between the real and the imagined, the presence and poetics of time and place in atmospheric but minimalist tableaux.
Mohr has worked for brands such as About You, Beaufille and Galvan London, as well as for publications GQ, CAP 742 024, Marie Claire and L'Officiel Malaysia, to name a few.
