morning rites in varanasi
I currently study at the Adams Experimental Photography Center in Rome and am a student of the photographer Mario Guerra.
I was also a student of Paolo Sollazzo, a photojournalist based in Rome.
I continue to follow numerous contemporary photography courses, for example with Luca Panaro or Matteo Cremonesi at the Sarzana photography school, Spazi Fotografi.
I began studying photography about 6 years ago, a passionate journey that captivated me.
Photography transformed my identity, until then all reflected in my work, into a journey of self-knowledge.
The study that I am passionate about is the relationship between two or more images, the possibility of connecting different visions that imply the existence of an infinite plurality of combinations.
The individual frames in an unpredictable evolution are linked, creating new meanings or new questions.
Everything comes from the dialogue between the photos that refer to each other, in an imagined and suspended space.
The images, arranged in comparison, create and re/create other stories, they intertwine intimately and plastically, generating images from images and within images.
It is a nomadism open to all possible narratives. The configuration of the image has continuous internal references, it speaks to our fragmented being and to our eternal search for harmony and unity.
