Diego Brambilla is an Italian and Swiss artist, based in Zürich. He completed his MA in Photography at the London College of Communication, University of the Arts London, in 2015, following a BA in Sociology and a diploma in Film Direction.
His practice operates at the intersection of photography, sculpture, and object-making, assembling fragments of reality into constructed scenarios that move between cultural references and personal introspection — holding playfulness and unease in deliberate tension. The printed image is treated as an artefact in its own right: handmade gelatin silver prints, digital outputs on handcrafted papers, archival interventions, and alternative processes are all part of a practice in which printing is as essential as capturing the image.
He is an active member of pool collective in Zurich, and of near., the Swiss association for contemporary photography. His work has received the Urbanautica WHAT’S THE URGENCY award (2021), the Photolucida Yearbook Award (2021), the Life Framer World Travelers prize (2019), and the PhotoX Award (2017), and has been shortlisted at Athens Photo Festival, Voies Off Arles, and the PhotogrVphy Grant. It has been featured in Fisheye Magazine, GUP, Wired (US and Japan), Dailybest, the Paris Opera booklet, and on Rai3.
Brambilla has worked with blackprint since 2018. His solo exhibitions at the gallery include Mingled with Voids (2023) and his solo show opening in May 2026. The collaboration has also been presented at Photo Basel 2025 and at Art Salon Zürich (2024). Earlier solo exhibitions include My First Dream at the Mudima Foundation, Milan (2018), and at Photobastei, Zurich, in collaboration with the Italian Consulate (2019).
Diego Brambilla (*1978 / Milano)
Lives and works in Zürich
“Mingled with Voids is a corpus of elusive shapes that emerged from an unpredictable and at times random process. As a contemporary caveman, images are captured in the dark by shooting at a screen where are casted some feeble and trembling shapes made of light. The output is an intangible work with the quality of mental projections, which eludes interpretations based on the resemblance of the forms.
Mingled with Voids is a deep dive into the randomness of existence without any preconceived idea of what it’d look like. An acceptance of the re-combinatory quality of the universe and, at the same time, an act of resistance against it and a tentative to generate instant-long worlds.
The process consists of several steps: at any stage, pictures lose something and gain something else. Key points are a set of mirror-like surfaces that cast reflections and a custom-made darkroom printing process with a coffee-based recipe instead of chemicals.” – Diego Brambilla
