COSMOPOLA : “When style meets story !! May we introduce : Monica Monez is now part of the Cosmopola Family !! Whether she’s working on a fashion film or an advertising photo campaign : The approach of photographer and fashion filmmaker MONICA MENEZ is unique and unconventional throughout the fashion world.
She bases all of her scenes on small stories, takes things literally, exploits metaphors, and thus subtly reveals absurd ambiguities. The resulting images are aesthetic, humorous, and not infrequently erotic. Menez takes scenes from everyday life and modifies them : She puts the familiar into strange contexts, or spices up scenarios with surreal elements. Her images are multilayered, with attention to detail, but never overloaded – every element in the picture has its purpose, always giving viewers something to discover.
It’s the combination of fashion and pointed stories that really makes fashion a star in Monica Menez’s work.”

About COSMOPOLA
Let me introduce myself: I started as a freelance photographer myself, gained experience as a picture editor and managed a magazine before working as an artist representative for 7 years at Anja Wiroth Agency. Then the time came to explore new challenges, and so I decided to build up a group of talented photographers and illustrators at Cosmopola. I am endlessly amazed and inspired by the creative beauty I witness every day and am deeply dedicated to enabling artists to share their vision. Cosmopola´s goal is to build up a team of talented photographers and illustrators and help push them into the market. Cosmopola works from a cosmopolitan forward-thinking mindset, which anticipates the increasingly tightly woven connections between East and West, art and commerce, fashion and business. Cosmopola offers comprehensive support to artists, whether they are just breaking into commercial work, or are veterans of the industry by handling all the logistics, allowing the artist to focus exclusively on the creative process. Cosmopola wishes to see their artists flourish in the commerical art world and helps them continue making the world a more beautiful place with their images.
