This August, il-Kamra ta’ Fuq will host KÁLLOS, the latest solo exhibition by Maltese fine art photographer Clint Scerri Harkins – an exploration of beauty that reaches far beyond appearances. It will open at the exhibition space in Mqabba on Friday 29th August, remaining on display till Sunday 14th September.

KÁLLOS, the latest solo exhibition by Maltese fine art photographer Clint Scerri Harkins and curated by Melanie Erixon, dives deep into the Ancient Greek idea of beauty – one that’s not just about looks, but also delves into the spirit, the soul, and what makes us human.

Clint’s photographs reimagine the nude in a way that’s emotional and thought-provoking. Using the matte gel transfer technique, he prints his images onto textured paper and canvas, giving them a painterly feel. The process leaves behind imperfections: little smudges, faded areas, even spots where no ink sticks at all. But instead of ‘fixing’ them, Clint embraces them, letting the flaws tell part of the story.

The locations are just as important as the subjects. Many of the shoots take place in old, weathered buildings, where peeling paint and crumbling walls echo the fragility of the human body.

Born in Malta in 1981 and now based in Parma, Italy, Clint has been photographing for over 16 years, exploring everything from the sensuality of food to the quiet poetry of the nude. This is his third solo exhibition, and his works can be found in private collections both locally and abroad.

Mark your calendars!
