PHOTOGRAPHY
Bio
Nato nelle periferie milanesi nel fresco autunno del 1985, cresciuto tra le polverose vie industriali di Sesto San Giovanni.
La mia formazione come fotografo si origina tra i rumorosi e accaldati locali in cui suonano le migliori band underground del circondario, tra i più tranquilli e pacifici paesaggi della campagna spagnola, i palazzi e fabbriche abbandonate e la gente di tutti i giorni.
Lascio parlare le mie fotografie, raccontano meglio quello che vorrei dire.
———————————————————————————————————
I was born in the suburbs of Milan, in the late autumn of 1985.
Growing up in this former industrial area has definitely influenced my view of the world and has given me the drive to start taking pictures. Among the underground clubs and the abandoned buildings, among the loneliness and the sameness of everyday life, photography became my personal way to both represent and escape reality.
Enough said, this is my work and it speaks better than me.
