Andrea Martino

Tatì Space

Andrea Martino is a young Italian photographer with a background in architecture. Born in Naples in 1996, his hometown shaped his worldview, teaching him to observe space and understand the intricate relationships that are created with it. Each shot represents an attempt to absorb the atmosphere of the place, allowing the context to suggest its stories. Photography thus becomes a form of visual narration that seeks to capture the essence of places and human connections in a delicate balance between art and documentation.
