ABOUT

Furio Torracchi graduated in Fine and Applied Art from London Guildhall University and has been working in several studios in London and Munich. In his work, he deeply questions the limits of painting and photography and keeps exploring the possibilities of both mediums. Hybridity is a characteristic of his artistic journey, breaking down photographic codes in an attempt to free the medium from being an allusion to a specific space and time.

The representational aspect is diffused and the resulting opacity makes the actual physical object the focus of attention. The impact of this direct experience is phenomenological and leaves the viewer visually seduced. The spectator fluctuates between gazing upon the image as a whole and peering at it with closer scrutiny. The rich colours, tonal ranges and vivid luminosity have been developed by the artist in order to generate a powerfully sensitive reaction, emphasising the visual effect rather than the representation.

Furio Torracchi  has received recognition in numerous photography contests including the “Tokyo International Foto Awards, the PX3 Prix de la Photographie Paris, LPA London “Renaissance Competition”.
