VENETSANO is my personal photography and storytelling practice. My work captures the textures and atmospheres of cities through still subjects, finding stillness within their motion.
Born in Athens, a New Yorker and an islander rooted in the Aegean and Roman Constantinople, with Venetian influences, my life has been shaped across New York, the Greek islands, and Beijing. As a restaurateur, hospitality, culinary culture, interiors, and the experience of gathering around a table inform my work — from photography to restaurant and interior concepts.
Most of my photographic journeys are shared with my wife, who shapes how I move through the world. The perspective is personal and lived.
VENETSANO moves from the everyday to the luxurious, from the familiar to the forward-looking — bringing together photography, fashion, design, hospitality, interiors, and objects, all shaped by memory, atmosphere, and place.
