MICHAEL TRUPIANO

Michael Trupiano is interested in how light, both manmade and natural (sunlight and moonlight) – individually or in combination – change the nature of the scene being photographed. He is also interested in how our memory of a place effects our feelings about his prints. As a result, his images evoke a feeling of both something known and something unfamiliar.

More and more the scenes are reduced to not what they are but how they affect the light around them. And as a result, how we perceive ourselves in the world.

The work is not complete until a master print is created. Michael works in “historical” processes, primarily platinum/ palladium, gum bichromate and cyanotype over platinum/palladium, and polymer gravure.

Michael is a resident of Denver, Colorado. Currently he is on a long-term personal sabbatical in central Italy. He can be contacted at studio.mtrupiano@gmail.com.
