The series of 13 photographs marks Analize Nicolini's inaugural foray into the world of photography, offering a visual exploration of various landscapes captured in images taken between the years 2005 and 2009. Paris and other destinations provided material to weave into her journey of experimentation and self-discovery in artistic creation. For Nicolini, the literal expansion of her world through travels became a tangible manifestation of the freedom that photography could offer. Each image not only reveals different layers of the dense fabric that makes up the visited cities but also reflects the intimate connection the artist cultivated with her surroundings.

"Cities and Intimacy" lays the groundwork for Analize Nicolini's ongoing artistic evolution in exploring various media, highlighting the intersection of her personal journey with the visual narratives she weaves. More than a mere collection of snapshots, it is a testament to her artistic genesis. As Nicolini continues to broaden her horizons, this initial project serves as a foundation, anticipating the rich tapestry of stories yet to be told.
