Bénédicte Kurzen

Bénédicte Kurzen (France, 1980) is a photographer working on cross cultural narratives between Europe and Africa, opening the door to possible redefinitions of social concepts. Her photography combines documentary elements, a colourful metaphoric visual language, often framed by collaborations and participative processes.
My style of photography acts as a creative extension of my personal commitments and deep desire to connect, proposing a way to come together and collaborate, rather than divide.
I’ve been using Nikon’s equipment for over a decade, ever since joining NOOR Images. Nikon’s gear is undeniably robust, fast, and agile, and over the years, their equipment has become a natural extension of my creativity. I started out using the reliable D850 camera, gradually befriending a variety of Nikon’s versatile kits and lenses, including my current camera, the Nikon Z 6II. The Z 6II is incredibly intuitive and offers the imaging power to create faster, sharper content, so I can continue telling meaningful narratives and challenging existing realities to the best of my ability.
