Biography
I have learned the practice of the dark room in the “Ettore Rolli School of Arts & Crafts” of Rome, then I continued on independently in the study of digital technique and in the investigation of the color.
Interested in experimental cityscape, I usually retract the concrete matter of the "third landscape", in order to document the iron, the rust, the cement, the fabrics buried in the wind, the urban shape that breaks down. My intent is not to denounce the degradation of some industrial areas waiting for the rezoning; the photographic act seeks rather to "read" those suspended places and heterotopias. If history can't rehabilitate their original function, the danger is to contemplate them as mausoleums, like an aesthetic sublimation of the necropolis of fatigue. Instead one could consider the hidden life in the apparent stasis, developing a lexicon of images that will take into account the constant mutability of every place.
Recently, I have furthermore attempted to question the documentary approach in landscaping. In front of the omnipresence of images, I try to disassemble what has already appeared, to not leave intact what is protected by the frame. Immaturity advances, sight is not enough.
In the last few years I have successfully taken part in several international competitions, which allowed me to exhibit in different group shows and photo festival in Paris, London, Milan, Rome, Bologna, Reggio Emilia, Pisa and Pistoia. The passion for the image was carried out in parallel with the study of contemporary philosophy: in 2011 I completed my PhD thesis entitled The image and the archive. Archaeology of the present in Walter Benjamin and Michel Foucault.
