Prominent contemporary Italian street photographer known for his irreverent, satirical, and often grotesque style. His work is characterized by the aggressive use of direct flash and close-range interaction with his subjects to capture the quirks and "obsessions" of modern life. He often documents the quirks of the Italian bourgeoisie and beach culture. Rejecting formal rules in favor of pure instinct, Matarazzo doesn't just observe the world. Whether on a crowded beach or a quiet street corner, he remains a dedicated protagonist in his own photographic theater, capturing the unrepeatable sparks of life that only happen when the flash hits the truth.
