After graduating from the European Institute of Design in Rome, he began his career as an architectural photographer, later exploring the intersection of photography and painting through mixed media. A transformative Vipassana meditation retreat in 1992 deeply influenced his artistic journey.In 1995, Santini moved to Los Angeles, where his work was soon featured in prominent publications such as The New York Times, The Los Angeles Times, and Domus. He has also authored several books, including Greene is Beautiful and Panama – Architecture, Urban Art, Texture. Santini’s current work focuses on capturing a silent mental state to inspire a better humanity.
