Italian/American Photographer/DJ/ World Traveler

Born in Astoria,Queens..
Both my parents are from Bari (Polignano a Mare),Italia
Italian is my 1st language.

Old master portraits and self-portraits inspire me in context and form.

I like playing with the lines that separate gender, sexuality, the sort of roles that we play without knowing it. The person or identity you bring to a portrait session. I like peeling away at those layers, showing what I see, and hopefully sharing it with everyone else.

Capturing movement through long exposures, using available light, composing through the lense and no manipulation of the final image are key to my work.

    "Before we close our eyes, the brain registers a visual fraction of a second image and stores it into memory. Now imagine you were able to put together all those moments seamlessly, and watch this uninterrupted stream of sub consciousness as if it were a lucid dream - this is what di Mola's photographs evoke for me.

    From his unsettling poetic haunting depictions of both males and females, to his eerie and mesmerizing self-portraits, each shot is a puzzle resonating within the walls of recollection, waiting to be solved."

    Meduso says:

    "di Mola's lens affords us unlimited insight into the way this beautiful transient man sees the world around him--and at the same time, himself in the world. When he photographs a single figure, there is a truth that conjures up pure silence--I find myself holding my breath as I am invited deeper into his public privacy. To view his sets is to experience his ongoing journey without ever feeling manipulated into feeling any prescribed emotion. Stunning work. An inspiring artist."

    "THE only guy who can take a great male erotic portrait that's not "kitchy', lame, vulgar, saccharine or too macho! I really look up to his style in awe."

    "Di Mola has a knack for capturing the beauty and dignity of his figures. No shock. No cheap thrills. There is deep affection and care in his photos. This is why I return again and again. Don't miss the Israel set!"
