My business career developed in the image licensing industry first in Italy and continued successfully in London, where I have lived and worked since 1996. In 2014 I began to dedicate more time and effort to my artistic interests such as figurative painting, illustration, shooting documentary and abstract photography, and writing to the purpose of which I revitalized the indie publishing Peter Parker Media house that I had founded in 2001.
My abstract photography has crystallized in a project called ‘Unnatural’, whose prints are available to purchase from the Bridgeman Art Library and several other e-retailers.
Peter Parker Media was inspired by the 1950's golden age of photography essays, to create books that combine the powers of the written word and street / documentary photography. In the age of the internet and e-books, PPM attempts to create a new artistic language that breaks the mould of telling literary stories either with words or with photography, and fuses the two forms into one seamless narration.view less
