Leonardo is a photographer and fine art artist currently based in London.
After studying photography in Milan, in 2015 he was selected by the MAXXI - National Museum of XXI Century Arts in Rome and his work, Naiade, was prized and then exhibited, the same year, among the museum's collection.
" I am always searching the Beauty as the core of uniqueness. There is nothing more attractive than a person able to love himself for what he really is, by exposing and exalting his own weakness and “perfect imperfections”. I adore the skin, I am obsessed with the narrative power a naked body has, I find there is nothing as tender and reassuring. [..] The act of shooting is a sensitive moment of supreme confidence between the subject and the photographer. The photograph shows who are you and what are you going through. It is not a matter of body and appearance. A gaze, the rhythm of breathing, a movement of body are able to tell you much more than what you are able to think. " - from i-D Italia, interviewed by Gloria Maria Cappelletti.
