Manaigo, raised in Italy, currently based in New York, creates a veritable dreamland for her fresh-faced beauties. Her portraits strike a balance between deep shadows and permeating sunlight; some visual facts are enticingly hidden while others are generously exposed. Fascinating embodiments of grace stride through a soft rosy haze, seen on both empty New York streets and flourishing meadowlands. This enchanting portraiture is punctuated by ethereal nature shots – shimmering sky and sand, and experiments with fluid reflections.
