FROM
1976 TO THE PRESENT, I HAVE
WORKED AS A CREATIVE DIRECTOR, ART
DIRECTOR AND DESIGNER. I BEGIN ALL OF MY DESIGNS WITH A PENCIL
AND A PIECE
oF PAPER. SIMPLE, CLEAN COMPOSITIONS
OF UNDERSTATED
ELEGANCE WOULD BE THE BEST WAY TO DESCRIBE MY WORK.
IN 2003, I HAD AN AWAKENING OF A PERSONAL DREAM – TO ELEVATE
MY LOVE OF PHOTOGRAPHY TO THE SAME LEVEL
OF CREATIVE EXPRESSION THAT I FIND IN MY DESIGN.
THOUSANDS OF EXPOSURES LATER AND A SEEMINGLY
ENDLESS TRAIL OF CAMERAS, FILM, NEGATIVES, DIGITAL FILES,
PAPER, INK, PRINTS, MATS AND FRAMES HAVE LED TO THE
CREATION OF TORNO PHOTO.
THERE’S A STORY BEHIND EVERY PHOTOGRAPH THAT I COULD
SHARE, BUT I’D RATHER HAVE YOU EXPERIENCE EACH IMAGE
ON A PERSONAL LEVEL. MAYBE YOU’LL SEE WHAT I HAVE SEEN
OR PERHAPS YOU’LL SEE SOMETHING NEW.
PHOTOGRAPHY HAS TAUGHT ME TO LOOK FOR THE GOOD IN
EVERYTHING; TO DIG DEEPER IF I DON’T SEE IT AT FIRST,
AND TO APPRECIATE IT WHEN I DO DISCOVER IT. |
