    Honorable Mention in Fine Art / Still Life

The light, the flowers and the objects in my home. They are intense journeys between the rooms to chase the light by moving flowers, leaves and branches that change colors and always fascinate me. In their withering I seem to read the stories of their short lives so I immortalize them when they are now withered. They contain, within petals and leaves, those colors and shapes that time has consumed and transformed. Transfiguring the dying vitality into new flowers, ancient and wise. It is a life break that I love fortograph.

Fine Art Photographer after graduating in architecture in Turin, Italy, I embarked on a theatrical career as an actress and director and this has influenced my approach to photography. I started photographing theater rehearsals so that I love to create atmospheres where the actors are often the everyday objects that take on new appearances. I set up ‘Minimi Set’ creating surreal atmospheres, I like to think they are another reality that is truer than the real one. I manage the blog 'L'ovo di Piero' of photographic surreal stories and I write on Artwort, especially about photography.
