about me

fabrizio q portrait

“I am living in the land between my photographs and reality.”

Fabrizio is an Italian photographer and filmmaker based in London (UK).

He was born in Naples (Italy) in 1970. After graduating from Engineering university, he moved to the UK where he currently lives.

Fabrizio focuses on creating personal and emotional stories, real or fictional, where he puts together various types of imagery - such as portraits and scenes with family, friends or chance encounters, fragments from dreams and from daily experiences - with the aim to create layered, deep and introspective stories that are connected to his inner self and through which he explores his relationship with the outside world. Fabrizio has published several fanzines and a photobook ('Aritmia', 2019). His photographic works have been exhibited in United Kingdom, Italy and Japan and have been featured on numerous photography magazines and prestigious online blogs.

In 2023, Fabrizio’s has written and directed his first short film: “Would You Rather”, which explores the themes of acceptance and embracing one's own uniqueness. This new creative venture has provided him with an opportunity to examine the complexities of human relationships and the core themes of his photographic work through a different medium.

Signed limited edition prints are available for sale as well. For more information please contact Fabrizio.
