Bruno Paolo Benedetti - Vortice

Bruno Paolo Benedetti, born in 1954, began taking photographs in 1968, studying perspective and photographic techniques. From the beginning he focused on black-and-white photography, observing the contrasts of nature, the lights, and interpreting the reality around him. When he was 25 he began to work in the darkroom, refining his technique with filters and high-contrast films to create his first surreal and abstract photographs. At the same time he started traveling around Europe and the world: India, Nepal, Bhutan, South America, South Africa, Egypt, and the Comoros Islands are among the places he has visited most. The study of religions and mysticism in all of them inspired his artistic production, especially his surreal photography, where cultural and religious archetypes are depicted.
