I live in Venice and I am 59 years old.
(I am a free lance journalist and organize press office for cultural events)
Photograph is a recent passion even if I have already some exhibition in my short curriculum.
I know that reality is always much richer than I expect an so I am always completely open to any situation or event around me. But I am always in search of the awareness of the meeting point between my inner visions and reality. Only in that moment I feel that I am the photographer that I want to be.
About “Allucinazioni napoletane”, in Naples I wanted first of all to visit the Fontanelle cemetery, close to the very hard Quartiere Sanità. It has already been said all about this incredible mixture where death seems finally overwhelmed by the accidents of daily life of those still doing their best to live. But I had not imagined that my eyes could not then get out of a sort of hallucination that continued and sharpened between the serial figures of San Gregorio Armeno, battered dolls, papier-maches and saints.
