Biography
I was born in Tuscany, although my family moved to Friuli when I was still a child. I always felt a strong inner desire to communicate my feelings, and after first experimenting with painting, I later discovered photography. This has seen the birth and development of a passion which brings me to the point of not only making photography my daily work, but also of expressing myself artistically through this medium. I began to dedicate myself to research into new techniques and approaches. I am enthralled by both landscapes and the people I portray in black and white, while carrying out my own personal experiments in the darkroom.
“Polaroid”constitutes a key stage of my art journey: this procedure, in fact, allows me to intervene and work upon the picture´s surface manually, with results that are always different and original. My research brings me to use different films and materials, to experiment with techniques such as Transfer, Emulsion Lift, Manipulations, Painting and Collage, and inventing and perfectioning personal proceedings that enable me to transform the objective reality into an intimate personal language.
My artistic research, however, goes beyond camera, that is just the means to realize and idea, a project.
I delve into and immortalises cities and the countryside, both for private commissions and for personal experimentation.
Sensitive to human form and its expression, I portray personalities and artists.
For commissioned work I create art catalogues, calendars and publishing.
My work has been published in various reviews and international magazines and I exhibite both in Italy and abroad and I have been given International awards and reviews as well.
My photographs can be found in private and public collections and art galleries
