THE ARTIST
IVANNA SANCHEZ MORETTI
Ivanna Sánchez Moretti is an artistic photographer specialized in finding the beauty that lies beneath this world. She was born in Caracas, Venezuela in 1991. At the age of 6, she and her family began to travel and move from one place to another, first to the United States (1998), then to Italy (2007) and finally Spain (2016).
Surprised by Italian beauty, Ivanna began photography as a hobby, taking pictures of its nature, its people, its narrow and enchanted streets, as well as its grand and elegant Baroque architecture. Pressed by her architect father and pharmacist mother, she followed the advice of her parents and studied architecture at the Polytechnic University of Turin in Italy, and then continued her architecture studies at the University of Aalborg in Denmark. Realizing that this was not her calling, Ivanna finally decided to pursue her passion for photography.
In 2018 she obtained a master’s degree in Photography at the school TOO MANY FLASH in Madrid, Spain. But not wanting to leave architecture for good, in 2022 she obtained her second master’s degree in Theory, History and Culture of Architecture at the Polytechnic University of Catalonia. In her final thesis, she was able to combine her beauty for architecture and passion for photography where she was able to bring her vision of the famous Catalan architect Gaudí to a nude.
Because of her life experiences and being part of a family accustomed to constant change, Ivanna has a particular curiosity about the nature of the world and its people. The motivation behind her research is the desire to tell stories and/or emotions through her not only personal photography projects but also in her contribution.
In conclusion, Ivanna has a passion for creating art. For her, becoming a photographer will give her the power to express herself in a way that words cannot.

THE REASON BEHIND THE ART
I dedicate my life to that constant search for beauty, which is found even behind the ugliest corners of the world.
Defied by social anxiety, at times, life has been difficult for me. Certain diseases and disorders lead to insecurity of one’s self. But life has shown me its beauty and I have come to appreciate it in my own way.
My projects speak of our fears, difficulties and/or illnesses. I turn those challenges into something beautiful and fascinating so that we can see that there is always a positive side to every situation.
I specialize in portraits, nudes and flowers; everything that shows every being as they are, under an artistic perspective. My works give a mysterious and simple feeling, with a beautiful soft touch of light that shows the details of textures, makes it feel delicate, and gives the observer the desire to touch.
In my artistic creations, the balance between light and shadow together with the beauty of nature or the human being enters in total harmony, almost like poetry without words.
