about




Hugo Mapelli explore un langage visuel à la frontière des mediums traditionnels et de l'expérimentation.
C’est dans sa chambre noire, à Paris, qu’il matérialise ses images en combinant des procédés historiques et des outils contemporains.
Qu’il s’agisse de film ou de photographie, avec ou sans pellicule (photogramme / vidéogramme), il fige les ombres, détourne les procédés et nous donne à voir un corpus graphique, riche en couleurs et en matérialité.
Les abstractions et les photographies de mode se côtoient dans une vision artistique singulière.

Sa production photo et vidéo s’articule entre projets personnels, éditoriaux, expérimentations et commandes.
Hugo a notamment réalisé des séries mode pour des magazines tels que Port Magazine, Twin, Noisé Magazine, The Week et Harper's Bazaar Italy.
Pour des projets commerciaux, il a déjà collaboré avec des maisons de renommée internationale telles que Aesop, Cartier, Chanel, Chloé, Dom Pérignon, Hermès ou Lancôme.

Hugo Mapelli explores a visual language at the intersection between traditional media and experimentation.
In his darkroom, in Paris, he combines historical processes with contemporary tools to materialize unique images.
Using film or digital photography, ‘photogramme’ or ‘videogramme’, he freezes the shadows, twists the processes and provides a graphic, colorful and material-rich body of work. Where abstractions and fashion photographs meet in a singular artistic vision.

Hugo’s photo & video creative output ranges from personal projects, editorial, experimentation and commissioned work.
For fashion editorial work, he has contributed to international magazines such as Port Magazine, Twin, Noisé Magazine et Harper's Bazaar Italy.
For commercial projects, he has collaborated with world renowned brands such as Aesop, Cartier, Chanel, Chloé, Dom Pérignon, Hermès and Lancôme.
