My name is Andrea Costantini. I was born in 1977 in Pescara (Italy). I’m always been curious about photography and when the Art school introduced me to the darkroom I was literally fascinated. All forms of art inspire me, but one of my greatest influences from early in my career is Surrealism. Another source of inspiration is the majesty of some architectures: I’m fascinated by what men have managed to build around them over the centuries. I take pictures of faces and I modify them by adding images, like in a montage. I love playing with lights and shadows, tones and textures. My imaginary worlds are a mix of architectures, objects and animals. I use the most advanced technologies to express myself, but papers and pencils accompany the birth of my projects: sketches and notes turn into thoughts and images. My art represent the power to escapes the constraints of social and economic differences and the limits of space and time.
