Michael Massaia Figurative Photography
American
Michael Massaia is a fine art photographer and printmaker who has spent the past 10 years documenting areas and objects that never extend too far from his front door. Isolation, disconnection and an attempt to put a spotlight on the ordinary are the constants in all of his work. Massaia focuses primarily on large format black-and-white film, utilizing a variety of highly modified proprietary analog and digital printing techniques. Massaia works alone and is the sole craftsman from the instant the negative is exposed to the moment the final print is made.
