Paolo Ventura, 1968, Italy, studied at the Accademia di Bella Arti di Brera in Milan and currently lives and works in New York. He envisioned scenes he wanted to photograph, but these situations could not be found anymore. Therefore he started to construct entire sets by hand. He creates miniature buildings, trees and other objects. At the same time he constructs all the figures himself, making tiny clothes for the little men and women that he uses as actors in his scenes to tell his narrative and magical stories. In 2006 he released his series
War Souvenir as a monograph and in 2009 the book
Winter Stories came out. In the last five years Paolo has exhibited extensively throughout the USA and Europe. The following images come from the series
Civil War,
Winter Stories and
War Souvenir.
