About Artist

Marco Ragana

My passion for photography began in 2012, when I found an old Polaroid and from that moment I began my addiction to the unstable instant films that came out of the last factory still capable of producing them. I still use this tool which prefers the moment of shooting, I give up the options that shift creativity to post production work. The limits of the support become virtues, the saturation of the colors dialogues with the image sketched in my mind. Rather than real control over the technique, I seek intimate sharing with the person portrayed. My works explore the human being, portraying bodies inside small rooms, small theaters. I observe people carrying out actions in front of my eyes, they must be observed without the intention of establishing a logic, a cause/effect, because some activities may not have any at all, emptied of common sense. They are small paintings with sometimes sketchy situations, images that unexpectedly, out of the ordinary, reflect ourselves.
