La guerriglia a San Giovanni, i lasciti del G8 e come sono finita nel campo della comunicazione visiva Ieri, nel 2011, ero a Roma alla manifestazione contro le banche, il capitalismo e il governo. Il bilancio fu di 135 feriti, di cui 105 tra le forze del disordine e 30 tra i manifestanti. Il Fatto Quotidiano, lo ricordo ancora, scrisse [...]

Favara Cultural Farm Twelve years ago Andrea Bartoli and Florinda Saieva created, almost from nothing, a place inspired by principles of education, ecology and the rebirth of an almost completely abandoned territory. In 2012, The Guardian had already been busy reporting on this reality, which over the years has proven to be a winning model, expressing itself in these words, [...]

Interactions - London 2018 Observing and reflecting on human interactions London is vibrant and I was curious, before moving here, to observe how communication between individuals could be represented in one of the most diverse Capitals in Europe. (Brexit was not effective in 2018) - I moved forward with the observation in 2020 since Social Distancing definitely changed the balance [...]

Fluid Shadows: AN INTRAUTERINE SENSATION This is a personal exploration of my own body, a personal visual transposition of a very specific physical feeling, experienced differently from woman to woman. This body of work started in 2015 and it is part of a path of self-awareness that wants to visually investigate biology and physicality. Leaving my homeland changed my status [...]

Forced Introspection Matching articles intended for Ecointernazionale.com to an abstract photographic series allowed me to explore my own lock-down experience and its impact on my photography practice. This series is to be understood as an emotional flow; I not only wonder about my intimate relationship with photography practice but also how this research can manifest itself if related to a [...]

Experiencing many of the things that the psychologists told me during the interviews. Besides [...]

Dystopian Restlessness From my point of view, this work can be considered a necessity dictated by the time before and after COVID. Everything is louder, amplified and the background noise has led me to push my photographic practice beyond the presence of the human figure. A purely interior search made of shapes, lights, shadows, and colours carried on by crossing [...]

Stories of Migrant Women What this photographic documentary is all about Being the migratory flow is made up mainly of men, the female reality is told marginally and never by the direct interested parties. To counter the hatred climate generated by a one-way narration, I aimed to leave women protagonists of this phenomenon to be free to take part of [...]

¡πnk! Reflecting on dynamism, sign, and identity Meanings change and combine in relation to experiences and consequently the perception of them. Observing the body in relation to its particular environmental and cultural contexts highlights the historical vision linked to metamorphosis and dynamism: experimental moments in which the fractures and transitions seem unequivocally revealed. Photography allows us to capture a portion [...]
