filmmaker. Photographer. Artist.
Martina Trepczyk
Martina Trepczyk was born with roots from the Baltic sea –
and is reborn every time she visits the ocean.
She’s an award-winning filmmaker that lets films create:
A reality as a shared space.
For connection. Conservation. Politics. Poetry.
She’s a photographer that lets photos communicate.
With their innermost essence.
She creates underwater and on land.
She creates to reconnect us to the planet’s movement.
To make us feel: we are a part of it.
Her work whispers of sensuality.
And of the monumental powers of the ocean –
To make you feel reborn.

Martina Trepczyk graduated with distinction from her Masters degree in filmmaking at Kingston University, London, UK, 2012.
She was part of the Austrian delegation as team member of Climate Austria when she travelled to COP25, UN Climate Change Conference in Madrid, Spain in 2019.
Her passion for the oceans, wildlife conservation and social justice is her motor which also led her to be one of 100 for the ocean – a world wide art & conservation campaign in its inaugural year 2023.
She showcased her fine art exhibition ‘In Our Hands’ on the Azores, in Portugal, the Maldives, in Krems, Seestadt and Vienna, Austria.
