Sono Antonella Zito, ho 36 anni, sono di origine Pugliese e vivo a Breda in Olanda. Sono una grafica pubblicitaria, fotografa e video maker. Le mie tematiche artistiche, si ispirano alla psicologia e a tutto ciò che parte dal singolo individuo, fino ad arrivare a contestualizzarlo nella società e nell’ambiente. Le mie foto, appartengono al genere della “Staged Photography” in cui, attraverso la cura del minimo dettaglio, ricreo situazioni vissute, ambienti e personaggi raccontati con un approccio introspettivo, ribaltato verso l’esterno. Anche nella video arte, mi baso sugli stessi principi della fotografia, in cui spesso reale e surreale si fondono.I miei lavori sono stati esposti e proiettati in gallerie, fondazioni, musei e festival in Italia ed Europa.
