about
in his photography, marco vedana explores the intricate relationships between spaces, environments, and atmospheres. born in 1983 in mannheim to italian parents, marco vedana has cultivated a deep understanding of visual arts through his studies in photography at the iif in milan and art history at heidelberg university. his artistic practice is marked by a keen interest in the perception of space and the materiality and ambiance that define it.
marco vedana’s personal work is characterized by a constructivist approach, where structure and concreteness merge to reveal the contradictions and individualities of spatial contexts. his projects often evoke a thoughtful engagement with the environment, inviting viewers to immerse themselves in the atmospheres he captures. drawing inspiration from aby warburg’s bilderatlas and gaston bachelard’s poetics of space, marco vedana's works aim to create a meta-atmosphere that resonates on a deep, contemplative level with the audience. he aspires to unlock personal realms of thought within the viewers, in the spirit of umberto eco’s "opera aperta," where the artwork finds its completion through the individual experiences and interpretations of its beholders.
in his commercial work, marco vedana runs the agency documentingart, which specializes in documenting art, space, and culture, and delivering digital solutions tailored to the art world. beyond documentation, he extends his expertise to the fields of artistic direction and digital strategy, offering his services to art galleries and museums.
marco vedana is based in ludwigshafen, germany.
