Gabriela Medina is a professional creative photographer based in Paris, France. From her large collection of internationally sold photography, Liz Contag Art represents, in the Unites States, and exclusively in the Pacific Northwest, her finest digital collage photography and lenticular art. These photographs combine a traditional printing technique with a special lens and a wide array of angles, giving her pieces the illusion of three dimensions.
Medina initially specialized in international corporate image. Freelance since 1983, she has worked directly for top clients and the best advertising agencies in her homeland and worldwide. Working for the Fashion Industry as well as Gastronomy, Photo Reportage, Advertising Agencies and Corporations, Gabriela has shot thousands of premium quality images throughout her 34 years long successful career.
In 1989, Medina documented the Tiananmen Square protests in Beijing, China. She then collaborated with several newspapers and magazines around the world, amongst them El Nacional (Venezuela) and The New York Times (USA). Life Magazine published the incredible images she captured during the tragic events in its special edition: “The Best of the Year 1989”. Medina’s work was also included in the book “Children of the Dragon: The story of Tiananmen Square”.
Living in Paris since 2011, she then pivoted to synthesizing her extensive photographic knowledge, while capturing the essence of the “City of light”, and incorporating it all into a new form of artistic expression. The outcome is incredibly unique, digital collage photography and fascinating high quality lenticular art.
