SANDRA CATTANEO ADORNO
Californian Light

Photographing for me is always an exploration, always an adventure. I never set out to photograph something in particular or a story. I let my eyes guide me. Where they take me is unknown to me: I love photography because it allows me to be open to the world and the people around me in ways that always surprise me.

Mostly, I am drawn to people: having a camera is for me a great justification to approach people from different walks of life and burst the bubble I was brought up in while taking part in their experiences.

Visually, I am drawn to strong light and bold colours: I love the way in which strong light and harsh contrast transform a scene and layer it with mystery, as much as I appreciate the strength of bold colours and the immediacy with which they can communicate emo-tions.
