cinziagabrielph is the joint practice of Cinzia and Gabriel, two artists based in the province of Bari, Italy. Cinzia works mainly in analog film photography, while Gabriel favors avant-garde and digital art. Together they create images described in their own words as an experiment “across art, technology and visual languages to create new ways of seeing”.
Cinzia's introduction to film photography began when she found her father's Ricoh Shotmaster Zoom camera, and she started out shooting landscapes before moving into portraiture as she added Lomography, instant and SLR cameras to her kit. She has described analog photography as offering “a unique freedom of expression”, since a shot's exact light and grain can never be recreated the same way twice. Their portraits and nature photographs are planned in advance, from choosing subjects and outfits to scouting locations, almost always outdoors in natural light.
