Giai’s artistic vision is deeply rooted in a connection to the essential elements of nature. The artist primarily works with Cyanotype, not as a traditional photographic technique, but as a painterly process. The sun plays a central role, both technically and symbolically, as he experiments with varying intensities of sunlight on his canvases.
In 2024, he launched Behind the Sun, an audiovisual project created in collaboration with Turin-based bassist Marco Longhin. Blending spontaneous jam session recordings with immersive visual storytelling, the project aims to create spaces of dream and reflection.
