About
I was born in Italy, Milan 1983, where I grew up and graduated at the University of Philosophy before moving to Australia. My interest in photography started when I was a teenager, through family portraits and documenting my travel experiences.
Moving from film photography to digital has allowed me to cultivate my passion for creative photography; focusing on lines, shapes and colour interaction.
Macro lenses have recently led me to produce more abstract and conceptual photography, seeking to capture the texture and the surface of miniature reality, exploring its deep and hermetic side with a more artistic approach.
My latest works use large format prints of impressionistic details of images taken from magazines and digital screens, reflecting on how the virtual world of mediality is able to reach us only by revolutionising the concept of distance.
The aim is to emphasise the short circuit between the risk of technological alienation and the human ability to adapt to new channels of reality.
Emerging from pixels and halftone textures, eyes, hands, legs, mouths, are often depicted as isolated in their hypertrophic significance, although still retaining their natural and familiar appearance.
The subjects resonate with absurdity or nostalgia, relying on the ludic element of pop references and on titles that play with words.
All pictures are created with basic use of photo-editing and no AI.
Currently based in Melbourne.
