Floods are an ordinary subject in the practice of photojournalism, almost an obligatory subject often treated with a visual dramatization of already dramatic situations.
Here, the photographer, installed on the balcony of his house, chooses instead to look serenely a form of theater of everyday life. Using water as a black background – but full of details – he presents us small scenes, stylized of life slowed by the rising waters. Back from the market or the school, everything takes another dimension, and every detail becomes important. A point of view, in every sense of the word.
