João Pedro
Marnoto
João Pedro Marnoto has developed along the years a work within the grounds of documentary photography while using it towards a means of personal exploration. Extending his tools of trade from still into moving image, his approach intents to be an intimate exercise of awareness and consciousness, where instinct reflects upon reason and vice-versa, with his projects reflecting on issues of identity and the human condition within an environmental and sociological perspective. Working with Editorial, Institutional, Corporative and NG´s entities, such as the New York Times, Le Monde, the Douro Museum, Graham´s Port and Doctors of the World, with the intent of developing projects on a wider scale and reach, regarding the creation of contents but also its diffusion, he therefore has been collaborating alongside a group of trusty and capable professionals of different tools and fields of creativity, setting up a platform that goes by the name of MediaUtopia.
