Renato Di Maggio Rodrigues - Studio


Photography begins for me where its supposed objectivity meets its limits. What it captures is not reality itself, but its fleeting imprint – a moment that becomes memory in the very instant of its making.


My work grows out of real encounters, places and stories. Photography is not its conclusion, but its starting point. 

The intervention with oil takes place where, in my perception, the photographic image reaches its limits – where meaning condenses and the message can be carried further. 

Painting does not complete the image; it continues its narrative.


What interests me is not the objective representation of reality, but the question of how images can make visible what escapes the visible. 

Between document and memory, I search for a visual language in which photography and painting enter into dialogue, opening a space in which memory, loss, hope and time become perceptible.
