Enrico Marone
Enrico Marone captures images and stories from different landscapes and cultures. His goal is to inspire people to understand the importance of conserving natural and cultural heritage.
Using a documentary and artistic perspective, Marone creates unique images of traditional and indigenous populations, biodiversity, ecosystems and natural protected areas. Marone is an audiovisual enthusiast who also teaches courses and uses his approach to motivate people to look at and value our planet.
The ocean was Marone’s first inspiration for nature photography. He is self-taught since the 90s, using his photography to understand the ancestral relationship of man with the sea. Since then, he has composed a large collection of images from Brazil and around the world, with photographic expeditions to countries in Latin America, Africa, Asia and Antarctica.
In 2010, he published his first photo book: Brasil Atlântico – a Country with the Root in the Forest, accompanied by articles by experts on coastal themes. He made the photos and iconographic edition of the publications Brazilian Biomes – Portraits of a Plural Country and Atlantic Forest – A History of the Future, both winners of the Jabuti Prize, in partnership with Conservation International.
With images in dozens of art books and technical publications of institutions such as UNESCO, IUCN, Brazil Ministry of Environment, ICMBio, Conservation International, The Nature Conservancy (TNC), Rare and SOS Mata Atlântica, Marone also collaborates with websites, newspapers and magazines such as National Geographic, Scientific American, Horizonte Geográfico and The Eco.
Born in São Paulo – Brazil, in 1974, Enrico Marone works in the third sector to promote marine conservation in Brazil and around the world.
