I ask each character to do the portraits in their usual work environment. And Diego tells me that his is in the forest. And he takes me to his favorite spots in Collserola, his refuge to read or meditate and where he takes his amazing macro-photographs of flowers and plants. Diego photographs petals and leaves and transforms them into delicate landscapes and strange textures that seem to emerge from a dream.
No doubt, his profession as a graphic designer and his discreet mystical side help him to achieve a beautiful, harmonic and serene work.
Diego Petrilli has been working for twenty-five years in corporate, editorial and cultural graphic communication. This last one being his great passion, accompanying artists of all disciplines at the moment of making their work known.
He has published Unísono, a collection of macro-photographs. His latest book, 36 vistes de Torre Collserola, (36 views of Collserola Tower) is a precious exercise of repetitive observation, almost Zen, which reveals the surprising play of light and atmospheric elements that envelop Foster's tower every day.
