People watching an antique movie (2025)


My grandfather told me there was a place in the city where you could go back in time to discover what the world was like before we were born.

I think I've found it.





A writer thinks of Cuba, and cries (2025)


The writer's hand, thin and trembling, rested on the polished wood of the coffin.

No one knew that, at that moment, he was thinking of Cuba.

He was thinking of a Cuban sunset he had seen years before, during a trip you take when you want to escape without knowing what.

It had been a long time since he had thought of Cuba.

The last time he did, he ran away the next day.





Red white cyst disease (2025)

"The patient discovered she had contracted the disease known as white-red cysts.

The disease is only a skin condition, but if left untreated, it can still lead to serious consequences: a permanent transformation...
The transformation into a hideous, unwatchable being.

She must be treated, and contagion must be avoided at all costs.

I'm keeping her under observation."

Dr. Robert Parker






The balancing mouse (2024)


“Strong legs, straight back,
back and forth, back and forth.

I'll get out of this city,
from this mediocrity,
there will be a show of mine,
no faded colors,
no scratches or cracks,
there will be an endless crowd,
a long rope and…

Strong legs, straight back,
back and forth, back and forth”

Bin (2024)


A boy likes to collect frames from magazines and pack them into his old vintage coat.
One day, he realised that the coat pockets were almost full of all these frames, so he had to put all this "trash" into the bin.
However, because he was so proud of his collection, he created a collage to give them a purpose before dying too soon. Then, he took a picture of the work: a memory that will last forever.
This is the picture that he took.





Earth Invader (2024)


This picture is about a dream that I had.
I remember that I was walking in a popular street in Turin. I passed behind one of my favorite buildings and I looked up.
A beam of light blinded me for a second, and then, when I opened my eyes again, I saw the space invaders' characters fighting each other: probably for the life and death of the earth.
I laughed.

1.000.000 (2019-2024)


This is a photography representation of the "Famine
Memorial"
in Dublin City.
These figures commemorate a catastrophe that
happened in Ireland between 1845 and 1849 when
Ireland lost more than one million citizens to starvation.
During a trip, I saw these fascinating statues and learned
the story behind them. I imagined that these people were the closest to the loss #1.000.000.
The heads rise when they reach the number, with a divine light that accompanies them, like an athlete who breaks a record.
In reality is the achievement of the most profound Irish disaster in history.

Trinity College Dome (2019-2023)


I was walking around Trinity College in Dublin when the dome in the center of the square struck me. She was hit by a very elegant and brilliant beam of light.
I wish, I don't know why, that a dove had passed by at that moment, but unfortunately it wasn't like that.

The photo remained on my hard drive for several years, as it was not finished for me. One day I tried to post it on Instagram but something was missed, so I delated it.

At the same time, however, I was sorry not to be able to bring it to life, so, after some time, I decided to do something. Not having been able to immortalise a dove from life, I drew it, trying to make it, at least emotionally, alive and brilliant: as I imagined it that day.

Sleeping BrotherS (2023)


The illustration represents 2 brothers sleeping under the same blanket. Is not known why they are sleeping: it can be for resting a little in the afternoon, or it can be because they are dead even. This picture also reminds me of the desert, a place of peace and death.

The Horizontal Tree (2021)


I have always been worried about environmental issues so I tried to represent something that I learned some years ago: nature doesn’t care about the events of the world. It was here before us and it will be after our time.
But we should care about the world.
We should care about the world because we are just subjects.

Colorno Psychiatric Hospital (2020)


While visiting the Colorno psychiatric hospital, I stopped to immortalize some pieces that interested and fascinated me.

I tried to tell about a place that was once lived by nurses, doctors and patients with dark and difficult life.

A place that is still imbued with these people, even if in a memory.

The Coffin of the Readers (2020)


Because of the fact that I don’t want to ruin the story behind the name of the picture, I won’t describe the picture at all.
I can just say that this place is famous, beautiful, antique and it’s in Ireland.

Dublin Factory (2020)


This is an unknown factory that I photographed during my Irish experience in 2020.
What I like about that moment is that the factory and the smoke were both tiny, simple, and sweet.
That was a worm day.





Come to Me (2020)


I was walking throught one of Dublin’s most impostant cemetries when I saw this cross.
It was on a grave half absorbed by nature.
It seemed to me that the cross was under a spell and could not escape from that terrible situation.

Glasnevin Cemetery Museum Dublin (2020)


I remember that day. That day my mood could be summerized in this sentence: “I like the Day of the Dead: I go to the cemetery and I feel like someone”.
Cit.
