Fine Art Photography by Giuseppe Gradella

Italian photographer Giuseppe Gradella captures spellbinding portraits that evoke memories and dreams.

“Conscious that everything is layered over time, in the heart, in memory and that, sooner or later, it finds a way back to the light, to unveil itself, he thinks of photography as holding your breath, just under the surface, for as long as your breath lasts, then re-emerging to observe the world from a different perspective, one that is more aware.”

“For me, photography arrived like a storm after months of drought, and I am still very thirsty.”

— Giuseppe Gradella

“In order for memory to speak to him, he arms himself with a lot of patience and an excellent bait that allows him to fish even where life’s flow is perceptible only to the eye, like under a sheet of ice. Physical places and those that exist in memory, where life and dreams intertwine in a process of transfiguration and internal re-creation in which time is suspended.”
