Dario Maniucci
He is a photographer based in Florence. For years he worked in a profession grounded in rigor and analytical thinking, without any formal artistic background. Feeling the need to express his creativity, he approached photography almost by chance, discovering in it a space for personal observation and reflection.
He studied photography at the Fondazione Studio Marangoni, specializing in photojournalism and portraiture. Since 2018, his work has explored themes such as identity, vulnerability, and authenticity. His long-term project, The Clearing, investigates contemporary masculinity, questioning established gender narratives and proposing more intimate and authentic expressions of male identity.
