Life

Work

Flach works in a studio in Shoreditch, in the East End of London. Many of his photographs are of captive animals and are taken under highly controlled conditions with the help of a large support team;[3]:155[4] he sometimes employs techniques more usual in human portraiture.[5] For his book Endangered, published in 2017, he also photographed some wild animals in their natural habitat.[6]

His work has appeared in National Geographic,[7] Creative Review,[8] The New York Times,[9] The Guardian[10] and The New Scientist.[11] He has lectured at various universities,[12] and at institutions such as the Zoological Society of London[13] and the St Petersburg International Economic Forum.[14]
