 Statement

Together with the photographer Mario Guerra, we have extended the concept of communication to other media of contemporary art.
Photography has often been used in jewellery creation, becoming an integrated part of it, but this time we have tried to invert this process by inserting jewellery into the creative process of photography.

Detail, which is what characterizes jewellery most, has been emphasized and focussed on, so as to become an abstract element of the artistic composition, extending its communication potential.

This dialogue between jewellery and other media, goes to show how the creative process of jewellery does not end once the piece is finished, but starts the moment it enters into contact with other forms of communication.

C.V

Italian advertising, industrial and corporate photographer in France and Italy, after having lived in Rome and New York, Mario Guerra is today based in Paris and he works primarily out of Paris, Rome and Milan.

For many years he focussed on industrial, architectural and corporate photography, but is increasingly concentrating on advertising work, portraits, lifestyle and more personal projects.

This recent change of direction has enabled him to combine his extensive technical experience of industrial photography and corporate work, with commissions that are not only more creative, but also allow for expression of a more personal vision in which atmosphere, taste and emotion are the more dominant elements. He wanted to take his work into an area where the components of a single, or a series of images, tell a story and move one emotionally, rather than simply to show or serve as testimony.

Marios‚'s desire to produce images that are more emotional has led to a particularly productive period, including more personal works like MATERIALS‚ JAZZ or BUILDINGS (published in Great Britain by Rotovision) together with more recent work focussing on portraits both of people, and urban landscapes.

The result of this more creative, expressive approach has been to increase the work Mario is doing with Advertising Agencies and Art Directors.

Mario‚'s expertise has also been sought by educational establishments. Since 1998 he has taught at The European Institute of Design of Rome (1999 - 2001); the Architecture Department of Sapienza University in Rome (2000 - 2003); the Superior Institute of Photography of Rome (since 2000) and since 2005 at Marne le Vallée University (Paris neighbourhood). Teaching has been very important to him. It‚'s been a learning experience - not only in the art of photography but also on a more personal level in terms of the relationship he build with his students and what they teach him.
