Tony Corocher

Freelance Documentary & Fine Art Photographer | Art Director & Graphic Designer - based in Italy but available anywhere is needed.

Attended Central Saint Martins (University of the Arts London) and Westminster University (Fundation Studies in Art and Design, London). Graduated in Graphic Design from Kingston University (London, UK). I spent the following 20 years switching between various forms of design and photography while working on different assignments/projects around the world. My work focuses mainly on social, anthropological and humanitarian issues.

I am particularly interested in the development of personal projects that give a real, current and, I hope, true vision of what is unfolding in front of us and around the world. My long term project "BEAUTY IN HELL: Beauty over Drama” focuses on finding and documenting the beauty (and not the drama) which, I strongly believe, is always present, even in some of the most difficult realities around the world.

In the last 3 years my photographic work received a number of international awards (PX3, IPA, LensCulture, Allard Prize and HIPA finalist among others) and was exhibited in various locations around the world (Biennale dell’Arte 2013, Venice – Espace Beaurepaire, Paris – Arles Photo Festival – GHISLA Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art, Locarno – Palazzo Cusani, Milan – and more).

I’ve collaborated with Companies/Individuals from all over the world. Usually, I work from my private Studio on the Italian hills near Venice, but I'm more than happy to start projects in other locations.
