Vision

Portrait of visual artist Michele Pietrangelo

I believe that the way we look at the world shapes the way we experience it.

​

When we give our attention to what surrounds us, the world can unfold in simpler ways, leaving space for beauty, wonder and contemplation.

​

My work also comes from the desire to offer, through images, a moment of attention that allows us to see something differently.

My Story

 

My childhood in Southern Italy left me with a deep connection to the landscape. 

Photography entered my life as a way to observe more closely what surrounded me.

Finding those same feelings again in other places gradually led me to explore photography as a form of personal research.

​

My background began in graphic arts and developed through photography and reportage. 

For many years, I worked in the production of art books, surrounded by the work and ideas of photographers and artists. This experience broadened the way I think about images — not only as something to be seen,

but also as something with a physical, printed presence.

Artist Statement

​

My work begins with paying attention to what I encounter,

allowing the image to pass through me before trying to define it.

​

From this encounter comes the desire to share a way of seeing, searching for forms,

connections and balance beyond what we immediately recognize.

​

A different way of seeing can reveal new meanings in what we already know.

I want each image to leave the viewer space to follow their own gaze and find something of themselves within it.
