Enzo Sarto Cannot Be Stopped
There is an inherent shock value when viewing the work of Enzo Sarto. Executed in a clean and crisp manner, Sarto’s photographs highlight a deceptive innocence that demands attention.

Politically and socially charged images infiltrate much of Sarto’s work, producing a dialogue that begs for an explanation.
