I have always been fascinated by stage photography and for years I have been shooting dance events. One day, by chance, I was struck by the photo of a ballerina's step that resembled (to me) a flower. Therefore, following the flow of nature, I tried to look for those emotions in my shots. Experiences and moments (often beautiful, sometimes less so) that are part of our lives.
This work starts from here: a series of diptychs on the dualism between nature and dance. Not only a similarity of shapes and colors: but a story of the intimate bond between them. An exploration of the rhythm and energy that animate every form of life and that gives shape and substance to both.

My name is Giuseppe Santangeli (1970, Italy). I am a father, an engineer and a photography enthusiast. I am not a pro, but I have been exploring photography for over twenty years. I prefer performing arts, reportage and black and white, but I always try to challenge myself in different ways.
I have been recently awarded with honorable mentions at the reFocus World Photography Awards, London Photography Awards in the “special - diptychs” and “travel” categories, at the as well as at the Monovisions Awards in the “photojournalism” category. In 2022 I was awarded 2nd place at the Monochrome Awards in the “photojournalism” category, and got an honorable mention at the Annual Photography Awards in the “fine art” category. I received national recognitions and exhibited at the prize “the shape of the sacred today” in Milan Design Week, with maestro Oliviero Toscani. My work has been featured in Photo Project Pro “Shots to tell” and “Spoleto Calling” (2021), among others.
