Photographer, Director
NARÈNTE is a visual entity built by Lucio Aru and Franco Erre.We met in 2010, while being both on our individual paths (for Franco, it was fashion design in Milan for over 10 years. For Lucio, visual arts). After a few years together in the north of Italy, we moved to Berlin in 2013. There, we worked for over six years in photography, model scouting and casting and creative direction.
In 2019 we decided to have Sardinia as our first base.We created a virtual bridge between an island in the middle of Mediterrenean Sea and the most contemporary metropolitan cities inEurope. We listen, very carefully, the sound of our island and we bring it elsewhere, in a place where, eventually, it mixes up with multiple entities and where it needs to become an image in order to be universally perceived.
NARÈNTE is a duo as well as the connection point of many different paths told as they were part of the same vision.
