Roberto De Mitri

These four images by Roberto De Mitri seriously caught my eye whilst researching a variety of artists in the inspiration of my own project. These photographs are taken from the project ‘City of ghosts’ by De Mitri. The inspiration for these images is, of course, the idea of ghosts roaming the city, all in all, creating a very dark and sinister compilation of images.

De Mitri has used a range of techniques and editing such as black and white imagery and long exposure to get across the illusion of lost souls in a neglected, vast area of space.

The set of four images have inspired my own work in terms of my use of contrast in light, and for me to experiment with my own camera, testing exposure and aperture.
