Bio
I am an Italian photographer and writer. My approach to photography was in 2008, when I graduated in Science of Cultural Heritage at the University of Trento and then becoming an author of texts and images.
My interest is centered on the processes by which relationships are constructed. Each element, whether natural or architectural, individual or collective, is caused or influenced by what is next to it. It is the relationships between things, as well as the things themselves, that constitute the foundations of complex systems such as landscapes, social contexts, and the urban fabric.
My research starts here. I approach each subject by observing the dialogue and the conflicts that it establishes with the surrounding environment, listening and asking questions that guide me in the composition not only of the shot, but also of the narrative structure in which to insert it.
Each of my projects has a story at its center representing what often lies outside or beyond the shot: tensions and distensions, points of contact and friction between subjects that live together and interact within the same reality.
