NAGY, Zopán (Gyoma, 1973 - ) fine art photographer, poet, artist. He publicates in periodicals of literary and art since 1993. He exhibits since 1996; his main interest is the connection of different media of art.

„His images are characterized  by symbolism but the symbols  he intends to embody are kept in darkness. He constantly insists on looking for mistakes and provoking the accidental. He is motivated by intensive philosophycal and artistical ideas  – like his poems - and he also reflects on himself in his works. ” (Tibor Miltényi)

He is a member of the Association of Hungarian Photographers since 2016.
