BIO



Matteo was born and raised in Florence, but has lived in several cities for study, including Lund (Sweden), Bologna, Padua and Milan. He is now back in Florence, where he works as a visual storyteller, with a deep interest in landscape, nature and the relationship between human beings and their surroundings.
After a master's degree in Earth System Physics, he decided to intertwine scientific analyticity with the visual power of images. His education gave him the tools to understand the complexity of nature, but it was through photography that he found the most direct and sensitive way to tell the story, the way he sees the world.
He has always loved capturing scenes in which the visual composition is essential and balanced, whether from the ground or from a drone. He prefers outdoor settings, where natural light, minute details and visual rhythm tell more than words. His style is characterised by realistic colours, clean geometries and a careful use of light.
His works often explore the relationship between human beings and the environment in a broad way: not only through the visible presence of the artificial in nature, but also through man's ongoing quest to understand it. In this sense, science becomes a poetic act for him: a gaze that scrutinises, measures and interrogates, but at the same time reveals fragility and a desire for connection.
His aim is not just to show, but to convey meaning, emotion and awareness, attention to small things.
Because beauty, if guided by intention, can be found everywhere.
