Antonio Schiavano is a photographer and visual artist who explores the fragile boundary between identity and self-perception. After a solid experience in commercial photography with major international beauty and fashion brands, he has gradually shifted his gaze beyond the glossy image, developing an intimate and radical artistic research.
His works often originate from his photographs, which are physically transformed through scratches, abrasive materials, oils, and varnishes: a process that gives rise to the concept of Photomorphy, in which the act of destruction becomes a creative gesture, making each work unique and unrepeatable. Schiavano thus explores the tension between visible and invisible, real and fragmented, questioning the very idea of beauty and the value of appearance.
His technique uses light, matter, and composition as tools of perceptual investigation, transforming photographic language into a means of interior exploration and image deconstruction.
