Christian Pardini (Pietrasanta, 1987) is an independent graphic designer and photographer. He studied Industrial Design, specialising in set design, at the University of Florence, and subsequently embarked on a professional path that combines graphic design and photographic research. In 2022, he attended courses in portraiture and completed a Master's program in documentary photography and photojournalism at the Fondazione Studio Marangoni in Florence. That same year, he became part of the Clemente–Pardini duo, through which he develops photographic projects – both personal and commissioned – focused on the landscape and its intersections with social and environmental themes. His work has been exhibited at the Festival di Documentazione e Narrazione del Paesaggio in Cuneo, at the Fondazione Studio Marangoni in Florence, at FMAV – Fondazione Modena Arti Visive, and in other group exhibitions. His photographs have been published in magazines such as L’Espresso and Perimetro. In 2023 and 2024, he received special mentions at the Urbanautica Institute Awards for two different photographic projects. In 2024, he was awarded a scholarship by the Fondazione Cassa di Risparmio di Firenze for the Master's program Filling The Gap at the Fondazione Studio Marangoni and was invited to give a lecture as part of the Landscape Representation course at the Faculty of Architecture at Sapienza University of Rome. In 2025, his project Limo was selected for the Italian Pavilion at the 19th International Architecture Exhibition of the Venice Biennale.
