<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n
<\/h2>\nI’m a photographer and art historian born in Rome in 1973. I received BA and Master in Art History from Rome La Sapienza<\/strong> University, studying with Professor Enzo Bilardello. I worked few years in this field in Italy, before moving to London in 2008, where I exclusively focused on photography as my main interest and activity, studying photography at Central Saint Martins College of Art and Design<\/strong>.<\/p>\n As soon as I started learning it, I felt that photography was the tool to satisfy my need of expression. My first practice focused on macro photography to undertake a visual investigation of plants and flowers. I had my first solo exhibition Botanical Beauty<\/em> at the Imperial College of London<\/strong> in 2010. I then opened to other subjects. I travelled around the world in 2012 keeping a photoblog, published on an Italian online magazine (TheTripMag).<\/p>\n My approach to photography is based on the idea that understanding (or at least trying to understand!) social, historical, and political, context around us is the starting point to give space to self expression, and only from that point it’s possible to appreciate and give value to aesthetic aspects of life. I’m particularly interested to those moments of everyday life where you can intercept clues of an original melt between routine and the extraordinary. I\u2019d love to be able to point out this mix through my photographic work, discernible in many apparently unimpressive situations of our ordinary existence. <\/p>\n Collections<\/em>: Archivio Italiano dell’Autoritratto Fotografico<\/strong>, Musinf, Senigallia Italy<\/p>\n I was one of the judge of the International Photographer of the Year<\/strong> Photo Contest 2015.<\/p>\n In 2015 I was Finalist<\/strong> at the prestigious Lens Culture Portrait Awards<\/strong> with Women’s Energy<\/em>, I won a first place in Aerial<\/strong> at the International Color Awards<\/strong> with Sorrento<\/em>, and one of the photo from Another Point of View<\/em> was selected for Exclusive Exhibition<\/strong> curated online by Hollywood celebrity Jamie Lee Curtis<\/strong> for SaatchiArt<\/strong>.<\/p>\n In 2016 I was invited to be part of the Network<\/strong> by LensCulture<\/strong>, a chosen group of photographers all over the world, and I was selected for Connect<\/strong><\/em>, the first exhibition online of the Network curated by Aaron Schuman; last but not least I won a second place in Sport<\/strong> category at the International Color Awards <\/strong>with Marettimo.<\/em><\/p>\n In 2017 I was selected between 1000 applications to be part of The Other Art Fair in London, curated, among others, by Rebecca Wilson, former director of Saatchi Gallery. <\/p>\n Legal notice<\/a><\/p>\n <\/p>\n EXHIBITION<\/strong> (where not specified it is group exhibition) <\/strong><\/p>\n Oct 25th – Nov 3rd 2017, Relais<\/strong>, Fondamenta Gallery, Rome<\/p>\n September 19th – 30th 2017, The Pollux Awards Exhibiton<\/strong>, Galeria Valid Foto, Barcelona<\/p>\n September 13th, Behind the Portrait<\/strong>, opening night exhibition, Golf Photo Plus, Dubai, (video projection)<\/p>\n June 18th – Aug 31st 2017, Lens op de Mens<\/strong>, International Photo-Festival, Overpelt, Belgium<\/p>\n March 30th – April 2nd 2017, The Other Art Fair<\/strong>, curated by Rebecca Wilson, Kate Bryan, and Lulu Guinness, Victoria House, London<\/p>\n September 2016 – February 2017, Connect<\/strong>, online curated by Aaron Schuman for LensCulture Network visible@ https:\/\/www.lensculture.com\/2016-lensculture-connect-juried-show<\/p>\n September 14th – 24 rd 2016, XX<\/strong> International Prize Massenzio Arte<\/strong>, Istituto Superiore Antincendi, Rome<\/p>\n October 2015 – now, Exclusive Exhibition<\/strong>, online curated by Jamie Lee Curtis for SaatchiArt with a selection 16 photos only 28 May \u2013 4 June 2015, MIFA 2014 Winner exhibition<\/strong>, Rooftop Gallery, Bangkok, (video projection)<\/p>\n November 15th – 23rd 2014, Premio Celeste 2014<\/strong>, curated by Lorenzo Benedetti, Assab One, Milan<\/p>\n October 23rd – 26th 2014, Moscow Foto Awards<\/strong>, Fotolab Gallery, Contemporary Art Centre Winzavod, Moscow (video projection)<\/p>\n July 26th 2014, SeeMe Takeover 2014<\/strong>, <\/strong>Distribution #11<\/em> exhibited on the full billboard of Time Square NYC<\/p>\n April 4th \u2013 May 10, 2014, Doppi<\/strong>, solo exhibition<\/em>, M.A.D.
