Today, vegetal typography. Acanthus is a perennial plant that is known for its protruding spines that can be painful.

Everybody liked Tom Stoddart, even other photographers! Especially other photographers. Tom was the photographer’s photographer. His pictures from conflicts, catastrophes and humanitarian crises around the world spoke for themselves; with a compassionate eye and a click, Tom captured the moment that told the story. His pictures were technically brilliant, emotionally charged and worth at least the thousand words reporters wrote to accompany them. His images from Sarajevo, the Berlin Wall, Iraq, Palestine,…
Seeing life in sclerosis Multiple sclerosis is a silent disease that affects approximately 400,000 people in Europe. It is disabling and unpredictable, and above all 80% invisible. Using the photographic medium to express the ills of this daily companion, seemed obvious to me... images can sometimes speak louder than words, and allow me to express and show with modesty, the symptoms and the fear of degenerative factors. Keeping silent leaves…
Pain And It’s Wings My entire world hadn’t burnt down, but it felt like it had. Our daughter was 2 at the time of his death , [and just 20 weeks old when my husband was given 6 months to live.] He fought and fought and fought and the echoes of his screams [ bone cancer] will stay with me forever. You cry your eyes out. You see from another…
The Meat Market “The Meat Market” series documents the trans prostitutes of New York City’s Meat Market District in the late 1980s, a time when an intense energy and pulsating sexuality could be found on the stages of the city streets. I was drawn to the unabashed performance and public display of eroticism that is an inherent and necessary part of how these women make a living. The women played…
Analog Nature This photographic series deals with the theme of uniqueness in the real world. Let's try to think that everything we see in front of us is in fact unique and irreplaceable, every moment is different from the previous and the next, most of us don't even realize it but what the photograph freezes is a little bit of a unique wonder every time and when you finally realize…
Onirism & Reality Photographic images can be a representation of our dreams, nightmares and other phobias buried deep in the meanders of our unconscious and our childhood memories. In this way, photography is an outlet for our neuroses and a reflection of the landscapes of our imagination. Where dream and reality tend to merge. I started to photograph at the age of 15 with an old AGFA SILETTE-L camera that my…
Fan Dance, Transformation In a life of fabricated meanings, photography gives me the opportunity to question definitions and visually redefine reality. It takes my mind to a place where known verbal labels of subjects disappear and are replaced by subconsciously unique visual forms. Fan Dance, Transformation is my most recent series of images in which I have tried to capture an essence, found between light and darkness , in that…
Near and far Venice remains far away, but a road that crosses the industrial area of Marghera, partly abandoned, leads to a widening space on the lagoon where the inhabitants of the surroundings create their vacation’s dream. A small, close-knit community that performs the ritual of the holiday every Sunday with minimal gestures while in the background the large commercial ships flow arriving from far places, along the Canale dei…
