THE PROJECT
A story of images
«If photography is poetry for the eyes, poetry is a snapshot of the soul.» – Mr. Poe
Poegrafia was born in 2019 as a union between photography and poetry, after twenty years of practice and studio.
Over time it evolves into a creative laboratory multidisciplinary, a blog and one community of people united by a love of beauty and inner exploration.
Here the image writes and the word paints. Here art is loved, practiced and shared.
- Making the invisible visible: to bring out emotions, details and stories that escape most people.
- (Dif)fuse languages: photography, painting, and writing as tools for knowing, understanding oneself, and describing the world.
- Promote the creative craft: to recognize and support those who transform ideas into original artistic content.
- Inspire and (r)innovate: Each content is created to encourage critical thinking and the rediscovery of universal artistic values.
Discover the new Journal: news and behind-the-scenes insights from the Studio are added to the colorful world of Poegrafia.
THE FOUNDER

— Mr. Poe
Tireless creative.
Pragmatic idealist.
Imperfect perfectionist — but he's working on it.
He writes, photographer and invent things which (still) do not exist.
If you think you know him, think again.
