MIKELLA YOUNES

Mikella Younes is a multidisciplinary artist renowned for her bold and raw approach to high fashion, surrealism, and storytelling. As a director and photographer, she crafts visually driven work that reimagines nostalgia through a sharp, contemporary lens. Whether in music videos, editorial photography, or fashion films, her creations are both striking and deeply intentional.

DIRECTOR / PHOTOGRAPHER

She gravitates toward strong compositions, bold contrasts, and subjects that carry emotional or visual weight. Her work spans from the unpolished intimacy of a portrait to the carefully orchestrated chaos of a music video—always marked by a lingering intensity. Influenced by 90s aesthetics, editorial photography, and the tension between refinement and imperfection, she crafts images that feel raw, immediate, and unapologetically honest.

Her distinctive visual style has been featured in leading international publications, including GQ, Vogue, Billboard, and more.
