Marelli takes a significantly different approach to photography, putting the experience first and the camera second. Armed only with a pencil and a camera, he takes art out of the studio and re-examines the roles of artist and explorer. Unlike other photographers, he is not an observer behind the lens. He is an artist who participates, understands and works alongside the cultures he photographs. For the past eight years, Marelli has opened the doors of his studio to train photographers in the lost lessons of classical art. Throughout the year, he conducts international photography workshops in Europe and Asia for small groups. Individual programs are offered for those who prefer personalized instruction.
