The exhibition features a few people shots, candid shots or scenery I\u2019ve been inspired by. Most photos have fantastic colours and architecture, but I found it really difficult to curate my own work.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Jo said photography had been a hobby of hers for many years but it\u2019s only now that she\u2019s \u201creinventing herself as a professional\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>A self-proclaimed recycling guru, Jo purchased every frame bar one from local op shops.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt makes for a nice, eclectic look,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s (curating an exhibition) chaotic, but fantastic and I\u2019ve got a massive soft spot for it now.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019ve done a lot of travel, but once you\u2019re shacked up with an Italian, you end up in Italy a lot. Once Il Matto opened, Gianluca said \u2018that\u2019s my little Italy\u2019.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>And despite savouring most meals by snapping them, Jo said no food shots made the cut.<\/p>\n<p>About 30 people turned out to the exhibition\u2019s opening, with Jo selling four works since.<\/p>\n<p>All images are printed locally using an Epson 9900 printer and finished on Chromajet Centurion Photo Silk 285 paper.<\/p>\n<p><em>Postcards From Italy <\/em>will be on display at Il Matto (3\/15 Bell St, Torquay) until January 28.<\/p>\n<p>Photos start from $50 and go up to $385, depending on size.<\/p>\n<p>For more information on Jo, follow <strong>@banglesdangles <\/strong>on Instagram.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The renowned sights of Italy have been framed and hung at Il Matto Torquay \u2013 a fitting location for their display.
