Nino Trentinella

Nino Trentinella is a multi-award-winning contemporary photographer, artist, and teacher. Born in the Soviet Republic of Georgia, she later studied in the United States, receiving her MFA in imaging and digital arts. Nino began her career as a fine art photographer and has since worked as a professor/teacher and director/chair of art and photography in different countries. 

Nino is known for her conceptual and thought-provoking images. Her work makes a commentary on current social and cultural issues and her photographs take on a more ethereal and otherworldly quality. She has a special interest in stereoscopy and cutting-edge technologies, such as AI, which she incorporates into her work to create a sense of depth and alternate realities. 

Nino's work has been exhibited in galleries and museums around the world, and she has won numerous awards and accolades for continuing to push the boundaries of art, including an award by the President of the USA for excellence in teaching digital arts. Nino’s AI-generated images won first and second place at the annual Stereoscopic Society Exhibition and the Martin Wilsher Award “for all the outstanding work done with AI in stereoscopy and in raising the profile of stereoscopy in teaching work.” She also won the Gold Award for digital innovator of the year at the 2023 The Pearson National Teaching Awards.
