ENTRY DESCRIPTION
Cyclops was photographed in downtown Torino. The image is an abstract interpretation of a recent street art installation. By isolating the structure and playing with light and shadow, I aimed to transform the original work into a monumental, almost mythological presence, detached from its urban context.

AUTHOR
Born in Rome, Italy, in 1961.
At the very basic level photography is for me mainly a tool to investigate from an artistic point of view the relations between space and form which become manifest through geometry and simmetry. This is reflected into an interest in architectural photography, with a particular attention to modern architecture, where I use a rigorous black and white and post-production techniques in an attempt to reach abstraction by transcending realism.
My artistic inspiration can be traced back to the metaphysical painting, to the geometric intricacies of Escher, to the essential architectures of Hopper, to the ambiguities of Magritte.
