Andrea was born in Rome, Italy, in 1961. He holds a teaching position at the University of Torino since 1990. He learned and practiced photography at a young age in the analogic era but then left it dormant for decades. Eventually rediscovered photography as a medium of artistic expression in the mid-late 2010s. Since then has participated to several international wards obtaining a few prizes. Also his works have been shown at local exhibits and photo festivals.
