DESCRIPTION
I was travelling in Brazil during Carnival time I found this art piece in a little square coming out of nowhere. It was a truly impact watching so much colours !! At the same time I think the artist has been able the happiness of the carnival and at the same to express the spooky touch which sometimes can be experienced during the event. AUTHOR
Giorgio Mugnai spent the first 21 years of his life in magical Rome. The beauty of this city continuously nurtured his sense of aesthetics and appreciation for compositions of shapes, light and colours, giving him an increasing interest towards art in all its disciplines. This love for art lead him to explore the world and its artistic delights. In London’s wealthy and eclectic art scene Giorgio started to spread his wings. The music and fashion scenes of London, where he worked, enabled him to start understanding how art and the commercial world could live together.
Curiosity lead him to NY, where he wanted to understand the various scenes, as well as explore the differences between the two cities. Whilst living in New York and working in the music industry he began to direct his passion towards photography which finally lead him to work as a Photo Producer.
This job further developed Giorgio’s understanding of this medium. And it was then, that with newly acquired technical and aesthetic skills, he felt the desire to express his view of the world through photography.
Giorgio hopes that his style of photography and the way he expresses cross cultural differences and characteristics passes on the emotions he felt at the time of photographing.
