Lucas Dragone (b. 1981) is an internationally acclaimed, award-winning photographer whose work traverses the boundary between the poetic and the documentary, the intimate and the universal. His journey into the visual arts is deeply rooted in a rich background in performance, theatre, and human connection, an evolution that speaks to a lifelong quest to understand and portray the complexities of the human condition.

Dragone's photographic work often explores themes of identity, culture, and ritual. His lens captures the elegance of movement, the mystery of performance, and the quiet dignity of his subjects. He has traveled extensively, often immersing himself in the lives and traditions of those he photographs. This anthropological curiosity is a hallmark of his style, his work invites the viewer into a world that is at once foreign and familiar, where the boundaries between observer and observed dissolve.
