It is with great sadness we mourn the loss of the incredible photographer Eryk Fitkau. We would like to acknowledge his amazing creative contribution to the advertising and photographic industry, as well his personal artistic pursuits. He will be sadly missed.
It was extremely sad to hear that Eyrk Fitaku had passed away. Eryk was one of my favourite photographers. From the first time I met him his energy and personality were truly infectious. I loved doing Eryk’s prints for him as he would always ask the impossible of you and when you handed over a completed truly hand crafted print you would realise that the impossible was possible. Being able to work with Eryk was a privilege that I will cherish for a long time. His creative input and knowledge of the photographic medium will be sadly missed. For those of you who did not get to meet Eryk or get to work with him or enjoy a philosophical discussion on a journey to create a photographic image you sadly missed out. As I sit here I am remembering and visualising some I my favourite Eryk images. I will have these for life thankyou Eryk. Colour Factory sends its sincere condolences to Christine.
