FutureFood
of food. A journey that aims to respond, through emerging food
technologies, to an increasingly real and imminent problem.
“By 2050, feeding a global population of nearly 10 billion will require
a radical transformation in the way food is produced, transformed,
exchanged and consumed. To feed a constantly expanding
population in a nutritious and sustainable way will require
substantial improvements in global, regional and local food systems
so that they can provide decent jobs and livelihoods for producers
and every member along the food chain, to provide nutritious
products for consumers and do so without damaging our natural
resources.
Thus writes the FAO (Food and Agriculture Organization of the United
Nation) on the future of food systems. This is where Future Food
started, with the intention of answering two major questions: how
does change evolve for a more sustainable future for food? How to
achieve superior nutritional quality and even more accurate control
of microorganisms?
Nature and technology therefore enter deeper and deeper in
contact, creating that bond that is already the basis of the nutrition
of the future.
His work is focused on the concept of the individual and community. The images are the symbol of a collective identity, a starting point from which approach the different characteristics that make up a group of people. Each project analyzes similarities and differences through a form of visual storytelling. Today his work examines in depth the changes in what surrounds us, ranging from issues related to the new challenges that will characterize our future, to those concerning the environment and the adaptation of the human condition.
During the Covid-19 pandemic he founded and curated the collective COVISIONI : 40 photographers from each Italian region were invited to talk about the change in human relations for one year during the pandemic .
The COVISIONI project: has become a book of 400 copies and a collective exhibition at the SIFest 2021 Festival in Savignano sul Rubicone.
His works have been published by, L’Espresso, La Repubblica, IoDonna, The Washington Post, D-La Repubblica, Newsweek China, MIND, Vanity Fair, ID Italia, Internazionale, PH Museum, Il Reportage, Corriere della Sera, Perimeter , Artribune. His projects have received national and international awards and were exhibited in numerous festivals.

Future Food is a journey between documentation and the evolutionof food. A journey that aims to respond, through emerging food
