PHOTOGRAPH by LORENZO MINOLI
Born in a little-known part of Italy–the Northwest–where the majestic Alps frame
everyday life, where heavy winter snow and cool summer air are a constant, my
childhood was immersed in the elements that create dramatic colors in nature.
From there to Rome, with its mild temperatures and frequent sea breezes, I
found myself surrounded by gently mixed, smoother colors. Both these
experiences brought me to what I now search for in nature: the simple, little
things that surround us, that brim with either strong contrasting or smooth
colors.
As a long-time storyteller, I’ve written books and produced films, but my true
calling has always been photography. Revealing the unique beauty of small
hidden treasures in nature, I now share stories through my photographs. Each
one tells a different story, however you choose to look at them: right to left, left
to right, top to bottom, bottom to top; there is no one way, only a dive into the
undiscovered emotions that nature and I have to offer.
