Marco Battezzati, born in New York (USA), is an italian-american photographer currently based in Athens,Georgia (USA).
He grew up and lived in Italy for most of his life, graduating in both Geology from UNIMI in Milan and MA in Photography from IUAV in Venice.
Using the camera as a medium capable of uniting illusion and reality, he's interested in the relationship between the human and space dimensions and its sensibility with a symbolic and enigmatic approach.
