(Digital Image taken on Feb 17, 2020 in Venice in Portrait Mode)
As a photographer, Venice during the Carnival is an enchanting realm where history, art, and fantasy converge. The vibrant colors, intricate masks, and timeless architecture transform the city into a living canvas, offering endless opportunities to capture moments of mystery and elegance. Each photograph becomes a story of tradition and creativity, a testament to the city's spirit that ignites the imagination.
The labyrinthine canals and historic piazzas come alive with color and creativity, as people don elaborate masks echoing centuries past. The play of light and shadow creates a unique atmosphere, perfect for capturing both intimate portraits and sweeping vistas. Participating in an exhibition showcasing these captured moments is profoundly meaningful. It allows me to share the enchantment of the Carnival, inviting others to journey through Venice's vibrant streets and shimmering canals. Each photograph serves as a portal to those moments filled with emotion and history, preserving the Carnival's ephemeral beauty and timeless elegance.
Exhibiting these works connects with viewers on an emotional level, sparking imagination and inspiring adventures. It transforms personal memories into shared stories, immortalizing the unique spirit of Venice and its artistry in a way that resonates far beyond a single frame.

VENICE INTERNATIONAL ART FAIR provides artists and exhibitors with the unique opportunity to present their works to an international audience of professionals such as curators, gallerists, collectors, editors and publishers who seek to acquire, publish and encourage the best contemporary art talents.
VENICE INTERNATIONAL ART FAIR 2024 analyzes the relationship between body and space, and the hybridization between identities and cultural/physical/social/urban contexts in contemporary times, through two main sections: LIQUID ROOMS and FUTURE LANDSCAPES.
LIQUID ROOMS analyzes the hidden parts of our identities, through an immersive experience inside the fascinating universe of the complex labyrinths of our consciousness. The human body is a changing system that connects us with other bodies and spaces to perceive the surrounding reality: a strong communication system with its own language and infinite ways of expression.
FUTURE LANDSCAPES are abstract, infinite and conceptual, associated with a sense of freedom and infinite extension. Primarily experienced with the mind, spaces redefine their limits and borders, transforming surfaces in an open flow of pure ideas. This section focuses on the concept of boundaries and structures between body, mind and soul, human identity and the city, the space and the ground.
