His work navigates the intersections of performativity, masculinity, and queerness, imbued with an aura of intimacy and surrealism. Dagani Rio approaches photography as a means of escaping reality, seeking new forms of self-revelation. His visual narratives take shape by blending traditional methods of photography with a refined exploration of image manipulation, while embracing new techniques of image-making to dissolve the line between the real and the imagined.
He holds a master’s degree in photography from ÉCAL, Switzerland.
