About Artist

Hugo Eden

I started photography one year ago, focusing my passion on underwater wildlife and landscapes. The sea is essential to me, I couldn’t live without it. I take photographs during scuba diving sessions or, preferably, while freediving. Freediving gives me a profound sense of connection with marine life, as if I’m truly in harmony with the underwater world. I’m deeply concerned about the health of our oceans and the impacts of global warming. I believe that by sharing the beauty of underwater life with those who might never experience it firsthand, we can inspire greater awareness, and perhaps that’s the key to protecting and preserving our oceans globally. I am 34. I'm living in Nice, France.
