The artist Marco Garofalo carefully studies his photography, trying to create new techniques to highlight the single features of his characters.
Photography is a medium to depict reality, the subjects are tied to those daily life’s aspects we normally tend to hide.
Through photograhy Marco Garofalo builds a bridge between his personal idea and the observer. He sets up a familiar world.
This artist’s style becomes truthful and in his shots he always inserts symbolic objects. His accurate method recalls traditional photography.
The collection “Images of Shadows” was born because the artist expressly wanted to go back in time, when photograhy was built in a natural way. In these pictures we get the naturalness of an image which is only created by shadows, that lead to a kind of knowledge.
Marco Garofalo gives birth to this project especially to communicate to the young people that there are techniques to rediscover. We are talking about a young artist shaped by an ancient teaching: film.
This work, which recalls a forgotten past, is a homage to the masters of photography; these black and white pictures are dedicated to Newton and his photographs.
The originality of joining the sensuality of the image with poetry is just the beginning of a new technique that the artist is exploring; a new and innovative path.
