Winner interview with the 2023 MUSE Photography Awards Winner – Giuseppe Satriani<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Q1. Can you introduce yourself and talk about how you got into photography?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

I am curious of life with idealistic tendencies and a fighter. Someone who believes that shadows are the necessary contrast to enhance the lights. Someone who always tries to keep aligned what I live with what I feel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I was born in Potenza, a small town in a small but fascinating region (Basilicata) in the South of Italy. Those were the good old days of the Beatles, the Hippies and the miniskirt. My father was an elementary school teacher and amateur photographer who mostly portrayed his family and pupils, with a Ferrania Elioflex 2.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I believe that this was unknowingly the seed that years later sprouted in myself and that was strengthened during the rest of my life. Computer science soon took a central place in my life; I went to university in Pisa. It was then that my great friend Lello, gave me his “old” camera, a Voigtlander Vitoret and together with him, I went into the fascinating meanders of the dark room, developing and printing slides with the Cibachrome process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Q2. Where did you study photography?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

My first “teacher” was Luisella D’Alessandro, then president of the Italian Foundation of Photography. She introduced me to some of the \u201cmasters\u201d of photography whose workshops I had the opportunity to attend: Larry Fink, Franco Fontana, Joan Fontcuberta.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In Spain I had training in PIC.A (Escuela Internacional Alcobendas Photoespa\u00f1a) and CFC Bilbao. My permanent tutor and friend is Juan Pablo de Miguel who gave me the tools and the mentality to get a disruptive improvement of my artistic skills.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Q3. Do you remember your first shot? What was it?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Of course, I remember very well because I absolutely wanted to do it to my mother as a sign of the infinite love I feel for her and gratitude for everything she is doing for me. It is a portrait done on the side of a window. To dim the lights, I used the curtain she had sewn herself. A photo with a three-quarter pose with the face tilted slightly downwards.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Q4. What equipment do you use?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

I consider equipment many things that go beyond the camera and lenses. I currently use a Sony Alpha 7R with a versatile Sony 16-35, Sony 200mm, 12mm LAOWA, Samyang 8mm, Zhongyi super macro lens. Sometimes I use a Lumix G2 with lenses: Leica D6 Macro-Elmarit, Lumix G Vario 7-14mm. Lumix G Vario 45-200, Lumix G Vario 14-42.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Apart from that, I must also mention the Rollei C5i Carbon tripod, ND 64 and 1000 neutral density filters, Photoshop, PTGUI, Topaz Gigapixel, DeNoise, Sharpen; Midjourney, Stable Diffusion, a light-table, a light-box, Epson Perfection V750 PRO Scanner, BENQ 26\u201dmonitor, an hardware personalized desktop PC, pastel colors, a cork board, needles, pins, museum glue, paper clips.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n

Hyper-activity, hyper-productivity, hyper-connectivity, are terms that have become so widely accepted \u2026 (Read more at MUSE Photography Awards<\/a>).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
