The Photographer + Cinematographer
Ricardo Diniz Lamin, Brazilian, born in Resende, in the interior of Rio de Janeiro, where he spent his childhood among the green fields and the mountains of Pedra Selada — a scene that awakened, since then, his sensitivity to details, silence and the light of nature. His father was photographed at Floresceu at the age of 15, when he received from his aunt Ivanil a photographic camera that would change his story. Since then, you have never stopped again.
He graduated in Tourism in Brazil and, in 1999, moved to Europe in search of technical improvement and artistic expression. He settled in Barcelona, where he studied Documentary Photography not renamed Institut d'Estudis Fotogràfics de Catalunya. Soon after, he moved to the island of Ibiza, where he founded his first photography studio and his first art gallery — spaces that marked the beginning of his career as a visual artist and cultural producer. Throughout his career, Ricardo collaborated with renowned names in photography and cinema, such as French Filmmaker Alain Deymier, who made projects in China, Moscow and Madrid. He also developed works in India and Nepal alongside director Gérard Beilin, expanding his artistic vision and merging in cultures that deeply influenced his aesthetics. Today, Ricardo resides on the island of Formentera, on the Balearic Islands, where he directs the Photographer+Film Ricardo Lamin Studio, carrying out author projects and film productions in various countries. His art stands out for sensitivity, depth and spirituality, transforming images into visual experiences that tell stories and awaken consciousness.
¨A photograph is a stopping machine or tempo; my silent altar — where light is transformed into truth and each image is a prayer in an eternal instant.”
