With a sharp eye for the crisp, the pristine and the exquisite, Italian photographer Corrado Maggi delicately and expertly shoots ephemeral moments of beauty in everyday life. A self-taught artist, Maggi gained his artistry through organic, passionate study of the world around him, as well as by learning from the example of professional photographers. “I love art in general and the observation, the study of photographs of the great photographers of the past,” he says.
Through his works, he seeks to temper the fervor of his soul with the meticulousness of his rational self. The result is that the viewer is taken on a voyage through the fluctuation and tenacity of the human imagination. Vivacious, saturated colors are boldly met by velvety blacks and whites, and tell a story that is at once tangibly human and poignantly whimsical. Maggi is avidly dedicated to continued observation of life and master photographers, a fact which shows through his evocative glimpses into resonance and which inspires his marvelously appealing images.
