Hello and welcome to my website.

I am Franca Franchi and I am a visual artist, a mother, a mover, and a lightworker.

I was born an artist in Caracas, Venezuela but I am a citizen of the world, I love the country that I was born in, but I do not identify with any particular nationality, race, religion, or tags. I am a free being and I consider myself equal to all the beings in this world.

As a visual artist, I started my professional career around 1994 and I specialize in creating beautiful and touching images through photography, films, graphic design, motion graphics, drawings, and paintings.

My passion for art and images started since I was a child, I used to be one of those kids who loved to spend hours drawing, painting, dancing, and I also fell in love with photography being a child because I grew up surrounded by family members who were also into photography, visiting their dark rooms and feeling amazed by the magical moment in which an image started appearing on a paper submerged in “water”.  Yes, I was that child, and I know I’ve decided at a very early age that I was gonna become a photographer.

I went to Graphic Design school and then worked for a while as a designer, after that I transitioned into the audiovisual world, working as a video editor, motion graphic artist, producer, editor-in-chief in few production houses, and as a director. During this period I worked for the TV and Film industries in Caracas, editing, animating, producing, and even directing pieces like TV commercials, TV shows, Shortfilms, and other pieces like Corp. videos, wedding videos, demos, and more.

After a while, I started working with professional photography in 2005 (+ keeping active in the audiovisual world), which I’ve been doing up to this date. I like to call myself an Artistic and Professional and Commercial Photographer because my aesthetics and visual language are very artistic and I like to imprint my personal vision to all the images I create, which results in a type of photography that goes beyond the classical one.

As a photographer, I specialize in Portrait Photography, Food Photography, Product Photography, and Fashion Photography but I really love all types of photography opportunities which made me a very integral professional.

And while working as a photographer I also fell in love with psychotherapy and mental health awareness matters, which led me to integrate and use my photography as a healing process for myself and others.

In 2012 I decided to take over painting and drawing again, and I am now an active painter, I sell my artworks to private art collectors and institutions.

As a painter, I love to explore, research, and paint about deep and beautiful psychological themes, I’m inspired by life itself, and the emotions and feelings we experience especially.
