Lisa Marker

‘I am half-Danish half-Filipino and have spent my life traveling and living in cities across Europe, Latin America and Asia. Having spent some years working as a photographer, my camera has accompanied me on many occasions, often setting the framework of my explorations and encounters, and leading me to many intriguing and unexpected places. I have an intense interest in questions regarding identity and how identity is created and expressed, and often use photography to explore this theme.

‘In 2013 I moved from Brussels back to Copenhagen, my hometown. My background in photography and communications has given me experiences as diverse as assisting on a fashion shoot in Jamaica to promoting environmental and social awareness in impoverished areas of Nicaragua. I have worked for a number of international organizations and NGOs including Oxfam International, The World Health Organisation (WHO), and currently the European Environment Agency. In 2012 I spent several months in the Philippines exploring the country and its people through the lens’.
