The Stattoo project was exhibited at the recent MIA Photo Fair in Milan. One of the images was awarded and included, alongside masters of the caliber of Liu Bolin, Gabriele Basilico, Steve McCurry and Ferdinando Scianna, in the special exhibition itinerary entrusted by the organization to the famous international designer Fabio Novembre.
The photographs, taken in black and white, portray the statues that adorn the Stadio dei Marmi in Rome. Printed on Fine Art Hahnemühle Photo Rag® paper, they were then entrusted to a small circle of selected and authoritative Milanese tattoo artists to be "tattooed". They were asked to draw and transfer their art onto them following their own style and using their own original drawings.
The final result is unique specimens made even more exclusive by the photographer artist's desire to limit the use of the basic photographic image to just three works.
Mimmi Moretti was born in Catania in 1966 and after less than a year she moved with her family to Paris. He developed his cultural education in the French capital where he began taking photographs since childhood and, thanks to his uncle, became familiar with the darkroom. At the age of 20 he collaborated as a freelance photographer for some magazines. Towards the end of the 90s he began to experiment with the first solutions offered by digital, a solution he would definitively embrace in 2002.
Photography remains his main means of expression through which he experiments and develops new and singular forms of visual communication. His images are often characterized by some key elements such as beauty and geometric rigor. He loves to range between different arts, subjects and themes in the continuous search for unusual and original styles from which the influence of humanistic studies often emerges.
