Luciano Candisani has produced two decades of photographic narratives that interpret traditional cultures and natural spaces around the world. Its projects, commissioned and published by institutions such as National Geographic and awarded in Brazil and abroad, are visual chronicles about our relationship with the environment and the other species.

His photographs balance in a peculiar way between art and document and appear in exhibitions, art galleries and museums in various parts of the world. |
