Read MoreI’m Antonella Zito I’m 37 years old Italian based in Breda (Netherlands). My artistic themes are inspired by psychology, the study of the individual, contextualized by the society and the environment. My photos, belong to the genre of “Staged Photography”, studied and curated to the last detail, seeking to recreate real situations, environments and almost surreal characters told from an introspective world turned inside out. Also in my video art, I’m inspired by the same principles as my photography, in which often the real and surreal are fused together. My artworks have been exhibited and screened in galleries, foundations, museums and festivals in Italy and Europe.
