Biography

Photographer (CH/IT – 1993) graduated from the Vevey School of Photography, Léonard Rossi lives and works in Lausanne. Driven by documentary and conceptual practices of photography, his personal approach revolves around social and environmental themes, and more freely, around the narrative potential of the image. Through a cinematographic aesthetic, he conceives the image as a tool allowing him to create tension or to trigger a reflection on subjects dealing with the day-to-day world or current events.
