Discovering Beauty in the Built Environment by David Fonda
Composition. It’s an inherent and integral aspect of the two-dimensional arts. In most art forms, composition is created by the artist.

The joy of that discovery, of finding beauty in juxtaposition within the frame, is what drives me as an artist.

City Anonymity; Upending the notion of street photography by Lisa Saltzman

The Moodboards by Stefania Piccioni: A Visual Diary of Imagination and Desire
In this virtual table I wanted to represent a personal diary with a series of photographs taken of different subjects, in different places and in different situations.
