SILVIA FORNI PHOTOGRAPHY
SILVIA FORNI
I am an Italian photographer/videographer, from Florence, Italy, who moved to New York in 2004. I grew up in a family of artists in the Nature close to Florence, Italy. My father is a musician, my uncle is a guitar teacher and my grandfather was a tenor.
​
I have been working freelance for the past few years in theater, film photography and tv.
In 2013 I collaborated with La Mama theatre as a videographer and my photos appeared at La Mama Gallery in 2014.
​
My photos have appeared in magazines such as: Vogue/Playboy/Tokion and others.
For the last few years I have worked as a production assistant and audience coordinator for TV shows like: “Elementary” CBS, “The Family” ABC, “Lie Detectors” GSN, “Blindspot” NBC, “Rachel Ray” and “All Star Academy” Food Network.
​
I have also been a photojournalist for Italian newspapers, “La Nazione” and “La Repubblica”.
​
I won an Artist Residency in Woodstock – May 2014- as a photographer/videographer. My work has appeared in galleries in Woodstock, NY and Kingston, NY.
​
I am currently working on a series of portraits that chronicle a cross country trip throughout the United States with my aunt and uncle from Italy.
