Since the mid-eighties, I have been a Venice-based artist, specializing in platinum printing.
The development of my work evolved from my film-school training and my background in classical and modern dance. These influenced the way I stage a set, light or choose a scene, and pose a figure.
We have been told that history repeats itself. A face rich with history can help us understand better who we are. I work with portraits because I believe that photographing a face can shed light on a person’s identity as well as the shared humanity, we all experience.
