AUTHOR
I was born in Catania, Italy in 1983. I started photographing when I was 13 years old, knowing and loving analogic photography. When I was 15 years old I worked for the most important daily of my land "La Sicilia". I graduated in Philosophy in Bologna. In 2020, the prestigious international Monochrome Awards conferred to me an honor mention for Professional category - fine art, by "Monument to the beauty".
"As I love to know the cultures of the world, I love to explore with the eyes of a newborn child, the unknown places of the Interior of the human soul, including my own. The exploration of unknown places of the Interior is nothing other than my destructuring and that of my subjects, a mine and their “demolish” of scaffold in order to be able to come into contact with their soul, and be able in this way to have a dialog without the need to speak, both in photographic studio or on the road, to ensure that they will reborn in my image, printed on paper and in the heart."
