About Lucis Nova
A Shared Lens, An Enduring Legacy
The Origin of Light
This collection is more than a portfolio of fine art photography; it is the visual diary of a 25-year journey between a father and son. It is a reflection of countless miles traveled, quiet mornings waiting for the light to break, and a profound bond forged through a shared passion.
Every image distills the awe of discovery into a singular visual statement—capturing not just the beauty of the world, but the privilege of experiencing it together. We seek the quiet moments: the interplay of shadow and structure, the stillness that exists just before the dawn. Our approach is deeply rooted in observation rather than orchestration.
It is a testament to time spent side by side, creating an enduring legacy to be passed down and shared with future generations.
The Artists
Based in the Toronto area, Domenic and Joseph Gareri have spent the better part of three decades exploring and documenting the intricate elements of our natural and urban environments together and on their own.
From expansive landscapes and intimate wildlife encounters to the structured rhythm of cityscapes, this curated body of work is the culmination of their unique perspectives of the visual world. It is an invitation to step into their journey and bring the quiet majesty of those shared moments into your own space.
