What is my work about?

Someone asked me recently, what is your work about?

And I thought….Which was followed by a rambling bunch of nonsense because I didn’t really get the question.

So let me try again.

Everyday we face challenges and problems that require creative solutions. In our jobs, in our families and personally. We need to think outside the box and take a fresh approach to navigate these challenges.

This is where art comes in. It’s something in our life that temporarily pulls us away to another place or to use our imagination. Then we can reengage with a different perspective. Creativity is not just painting or sculpting or photography. It’s a way of thinking that we need everyday. Art helps us develop that mindset.

And that is what my work is about!

Darren Pellegrino is a working photographer and the founder of The Monochrome Collective. He believes that black and white photography is not a style, it is a discipline. One that forces you to see light, shadow, and composition with absolute clarity. The Monochrome Collective was built for photographers who share that obsession and who are ready to trade the algorithm for real creative connection.
