To capture the profound allure of his unadulterated subjects and ignite emotion, is the intent
of Raoul Ventura, Photographer & Videomaker.
Born in Lamezia Terme, amidst the mesmerising terrains of Southern Italy, Ventura
cultivated his desire for stills and motion from an early age during his studies of biology,
where his street photography instilled the essence of his command of narrative.
After attending several international workshops including New York and Lisbon, he relocated
to Milan, where Ventura currently resides, to pursue his formal studies at the Italian Institute
of Photography.
His projects have led him to work with diverse cultures that influenced Ventura’s sensibility
and perspective in works which include fashion films and curated photographic projects.
With his current project ‘monologue 20’, he articulates, through movement and imagery, the
stories of fellow photographers during quarantine.
Ventura’s aim is to capture inner intensity and narrate it through an aesthetic distinguished
with the use of light that sublimates the uniqueness of his subjects.
Stimulate emotion by transforming what is simply laid before your eyes.
