About

Pierus is a British photographer, now based in Vancouver, Canada.

 

He is moved by the elegance and grace of female beauty, and always seeks to find Muses to inspire him, and create striking images, ranging from classical art nudes, to modern fashion nudes.

 

Why Pierus?

Pierus is the male name most often associated with the Muses.

 

The first individual in Greek Mythology called Pierus was the father of nine maidens who wanted to outshine the Muses, and took them on in a contest. Pierus' nine daughters were fated to lose to the Muses, and were transformed into nine birds.

 

The other mythological individual called Pierus was the lover of Clio (the Muse of History), who was inspired to love him by the goddess Aphrodite.
