“Somewhere I read smile, it confuses people!

A smile can be spontaneous or forced. It can be built with layers of exercises.

It can be an act of courage, a subversive act when no one expects you to do it.

Smiling is the expression of a will: a feeling of goodness that can change us and our perception of the world.

It doesn't change the situation, but it sheds a golden light on everything.

A smile is capable of bringing people together even if they don't know each other.

The smile is contagious.

You smile."

Anna Giuntini was born in 1980 in Salutio, in the province of Arezzo and likes to define herself, in a few words, as a visual artist, proud mother, music addict and collector of memories. He has always cultivated his own way of seeing things and an interest in research into expressive means. He first studied "Art of Fashion and Theatrical Costume" then illustration and photography at the IED.

From here he tackles photographic postproduction; experiences the transition between analogue and digital photography by collaborating with Giovanni Gastel. His artistic production brings together all these experiences in a mix of analogue and digital, with the aim of making unique, through an artisanal intervention, what was created replicable in series. The expressive language is fundamentally figurative, but with a strong evocative and suggestive character given by the different materials used. Photography, collage, paper and inks are the most recurrent means of his investigation into memories, places, times and emotions. Gold, then, has always had a significant presence in his works.
