Mauro Palmieri

Mauro Palmieri was born in Rome, Italy but was raised in Melbourne, Australia. Mauro’s work demonstrates his passion for light, working with people for portraiture, beauty and fashion.
Mauro brings his skill to render his subjects with a seductive play on light and shadow to his artworks. Employing his ability to capture the beauty of his subjects, there is a distinctive rawness and energy to his photographs. You can see the influence of the great masters of the Renaissance and the legends of photography during the 20th century such as David Bailey, Herb Ritts and Richard Avedon in his portfolio. There’s an appreciation for the human form without gender norms or inherent prejudice. This work is exciting and seems to evoke a concept of music or poetry through the experience.
