Biography
I got a camera camera, the Russian family Zenith, for the first time in eight years and since then I've never stopped looking at myself and others through my goal.
I was fortunate enough to work with photographer Piero Marsilli Libelli in a project that portrays young and old portraits that made a significant breakthrough in my artistic career.
I attended photography workshops by Sara Munari, Silvia Camporesi and Sandro Iovine, and I worked as a photographer and scenographer on the set of Edoardo Winspeare's "The Wizards" and "Fine Pennies" by Davide Barletti and Lorenzo Conte. To which my aesthetic research has come to enrich the cinematic sense.
In 2010, I portrayed the windows concept, a lifelong lifesaver, a cathodic synthesis of randomly-focused emotions that, however, actively interact with the context, take specific ways in relation to what happens when it happens.
Also in 2016 I started a self-portrait project with my mother, about the "violence" of the domestic life I'm still working on.
In 2016 I brought up the show "Ascension" that tells the infinite ways that modernity uses to ascend / transcend the real. The protagonist is "the person": whether it's me in some self-portraits or rather other people, it does not matter.
The picture I present is part of a project that uses pictures of school benches as existential metaphors.
People, myself, old people, in this case, wonder and wonder if they are at the time of shooting what they would like to be children or what they just imagined to become.
The old men with their hands in the face to mock illusion, the Munchian scream, look stunned and maybe a bit sadistic to a world that has disappeared forever, but they seem to be part of the game and ready to shoot hands, handsome handsome group selfie.
The purpose of this work is to convey the tension between the expectations and impositions of collectivity and the whims of individuality. Few places like the school evoke the same chaotic mass of memories and feelings given its link with such a large part of our personal identity.
My "school" evokes rewarded opportunities for learning, equal to freedom, intellectual stature and creative potential, but also horror, aggression, competition, achievement of goals, the image that everyone has and self esteem
