Art for passion.

I am a professional graphic designer, specialized and award-winning in the corporate brand and packaging design. I've had a passion for visual arts since I was a child. I've always been drawing, I paint less and less and shoot as soon as I can.
In fact, in recent years, photography has occupied a big space in my artistic work.
Particularly, I am carrying out a research which interprets photographic images as if they were pictorial works.

Digital artist by chance.

I don't consider myself as a photographer, maybe as a digital artist. I take advantage of photography for my artistic purposes, I like the idea of bending technique to my aspirations. I don't want to be addicted to the instrument, but rather use it to extract a pictorial soul of its own from the technique.

Research Motivation "Shots as Paintings"

This research starts from an award that I obtained with a shot at the contest "Photographing the Adda" at Villa Gina in 2009.I won the first prize with an unusual image in that context of naturalistic photos. I was surprised, I didn’t expect it. So, wanting to improve that result, I resumed photographing the Adda, but it was inevitable that the photograph would stay with me. Slowly, the reflections of the river made me realize that a photograph could look like a painting.

It was a revelation, the reflections expressed themselves as painters! But it was not easy to affirm it with convincing photos. Then one day came the shot "Movimento quadrato"; it seemed to me a painting. It was the founder who opened the way to numerous attempts, almost all wrong! But now the road was marked, it was enough to collect the few best fruits and proceed further. All the works of this research, which begins with the series "Riflessi dell'Adda", were born from the encounter between lofotography and the artisitic sensitivity that sees behind a shot the pictorial potential.
The artist’s skills allow us to understand the great expressiveness of this fusion and capture its image, thus revealing the great artistic qualities of a photographic image. A sort of revenge of the art on the technique, where it is the man to decide of the technology and not the contrary. The Nikon and digital technology serve to capture a moment impossible to shoot without their contribution, but it is the artist who decides which situation to stop and how to elevate it to a work of art.

From this first series follow other series where the intent is to imprint on the work also the pictorial qualities of an artist. If you go to "Scatti come dipinti", you will see that I no longer rely on reflections but on common shots on which I worked chromatically with Photoshop. The goal, however, is always the same, to make express a shot as if it were a painting. I didn’t use filters, effects or manipulations, I just acted on color interpretation. In essence, in addition to the eye of the photographer, I wanted to feel the soul of the painter that transforms reality into a work of

The successive series are born from the same behavior put in place since the shooting of the photographic shots, that is to see the photos as if they were artistic works, indeed pictorial if possible.
An attitude that follows an all-digital process that I manage entirely starting from images taken from a Nikon SLR to continue with the artistic interpretation with Photoshop and ending up in production with Inkjet Epson prints. The original shot is decisive for the outcome of the interpretations, the camera must therefore have an eye as a painter as well as a photographer.
