Luca Campigotto is a fine art photographer from Venice, Italy. He photographs with the intention of the project becoming a book or a photographic display. As his latest work, VenicExposed, demonstrates, Luca loves photographing cities, architecture and landscapes.
In addition to his photos of Venice, he has also produced images of Rome and Naples at night, an undertaking in color on Yemen and a study of Cairo in black and white. He looks forward to publishing a book based on his Cairo project, and he is also working on ventures in New York City and Chicago.
Luca’s interests are varied, hence his love for landscapes, architecture, industrial sites and industrial archeology. Luca has found that photography is the easiest and most immediate tool to approach these themes. Perhaps his degree in history has influenced the way Luca sees things. “When I see pictures taken of places far removed from me, I feel something special,” he says. “It is all about nostalgia—lost things, ruins, abandoned or failed dreams, lost civilizations.”
