Hynek Tvrdý (*1972) belongs to those photographers for whom photography gradually became a way of looking around – and at times also a way of looking a little deeper into oneself.

He was introduced to photography in childhood by his father, and from then on it has accompanied him through most of his life as an important counterbalance to his profession as a programmer.

In 2020 he held his first solo exhibition at the X-Foto gallery in Prague and subsequently took part in several group exhibitions. He is currently preparing his first monographic photo book “PLACE” which he plans to self-publish in the first half of next year.

In 2025 he became an aspirant member of the Verum Photo collective.
