About Artist

Marina Ciottariello

The real passion about photography as an artistic work just began a few years ago when I bought my first DSLR camera. I taught myself all the practical skills and studied Photography via an online course later on. With the time I became passionate about structures, shapes and lines which was also the starting point for my fascination about Architectural and Abstract Photography. Especially Architecture offers numerous and spectacular motifs and limitless creative interpretations. I prefer high contrasts and I use black and white most of the time. I started participating in various competitions where I achieved the following awards and nominations: 2025 Budapest International Foto Awards: Honorable Mention, Architecture-Abstract 2025 Px3 Awards: Silver Winner Nature, 2 Honorable Mentions Architecture 2025 Minimalist Photography Awards: Honorable Mention Abstract 2025 International Photography Awards: Official Selection Architecture, Abstract 2025 Monovisions Photography Awards: 2 Honorable Mentions in Architecture 2025 reFocus Color Photography Awards: Nominee in Architecture and Abstract 2025 Fine Art Photography Awards: Nominee Panoramic 2024 Tokyo International Foto Awards: Bronze Winner and Honorable Mention, Architecture-Interiors 2024 Budapest International Foto Awards: Bronze Winner and 2 Honorable Mentions, Architecture-Interiors 2024 Black and White Spider Awards: Nominee Architecture 2024 Black and White Photo Awards: Silver Mention Architecture and Finalist Architecture 2024 Siena Creative Photo Awards: Finalist Architecture 2023 ND Awards: Honorable Mention Architecture 2023 Black and White Spider Awards: Nominee Architecture
