Norma Picciotto

She born in Milan, where she lives and works.
A freelance journalist since the age of 20 years, in the 70's co-founded the De Bellis photojournalistic agency, which carried photos of news for the Italian press.
Since 2000, she devoted herself to artistic photography and creates works that represent her inner world and the links with her roots; she explores the expressive potential of the digital art and in her works she merges into a single image many shots taken in various places and at different times, that shape a new visual world, of dream and spirituality.
Since 2011 her photos are regularly exhibited in galleries and public institutions of various countries including Milan, Ferrara, Venice, Cologne, Paris, Tel Aviv, New York.
