Andrea Dojmi, (Rome, 1973), visual artist, filmaker, photographer, performer, ocean surfer.
After the high school classical lycèe and bachelor’s degree in communication and art direction, Andrea Dojmi won a master at Mccann
Erickson agency in Milan (1995). He worked for ten years as a freelance art director, designer and photographer with international agencies,
post productions, publishers and personal clients.
At the same time Andrea Dojmi developed and produced his own personal research as visual artist, using different media as film, music,
installations, sculptures, performance and art-projects in publishing. (His art-book is AIMREADY, has been edited by Booth-Clibborn editions,
London, on may 2005 and worldwide distribuited by Adams editions.

Andrea Dojmi’s films has been invited worldwide by international film festivals, including Cannes, Nouveau Cinema Montreal, and Torino
Film Festival.
brief-Statement
Andrea Dojmi’s films are cinematic sequences focusing on tension between the individual identity and the community, adolescents and the
former education system, dimension of experiment and habitat. The themes interweave, pervaded by a constant serenity that at moments
can reveal tragedy. The quality of these works can remind some international educational documentaries and TV video-archives that inspired
a whole adolescence-generation in the 70’s. Youhts, places and situations, are shown with the same innocent eyes of an individual but
universal past, where truth seems to be caught in the deepest part of a simple message, like the quality of our vision in the first technological
age and its move into our present. The aim of Dojmi’s sculptures and installations is based on creating hybrid ambiences that blend formal
structures of education (school, gym, tools, etc.), with other common spaces like chapels, communities and micro-societies with their own
rules, belief and organization: Known shapes and actions, can take us back to a remote corner of our experience and imagination, just
converting their function and inner organization. Fictional goes over functional and perception of a space changes, shaped by new feeling
and rules.
