"The true voyage of discovery is not to look for new landscapes, but to have new eyes." Marcel Proust The image was taken on medium format film (Mamjya 6) in the late 1990s. After a long trip to south of France by train we arrived early in the morning near the mediteranean sea. The image is part of a series of black and white photographs about traveling the world included in my recent photobook and first shown in a solo museum show 2020. It has been integrated to the official art collection of Fribourg Art Museum (MAHF). Every photograph was developed by the artist, scanning the original analogue film negative and printed on fine-art Museum quality fiber paper (acid free, lignin free, no optical brighteners), baryte quality or HM matt. Other formats are also possible. Signed and numbered. Without being one of those globetrotters who regularly set out to conquer other places and continents, my work often deals with travel and tourism. What others say about this project: "After taking university courses in ethnology, the photographer worked to document his socio-cultural environment with a humanistic and emphatic eye. Over many years, he has built up a singular body of work that shows various aspects of daily life in a globalized world. To this work are added, as time goes by, images taken during trips in Switzerland and throughout Europe, in Japan, South Korea and Latin America afterwards." (Museum Murten)

Publisher and author of fineArt photography books. Exhibition curator. Ausstellungsmacher. Looking for international gallery representation. "The work of P. Romano Riedo proves that photography retains its own domain (...). Every single image condenses an emotion, concentrates (...). It provides information and traces that last. It supports memory, it keeps time and light. Despite its accuracy, it causes dreams and evokes imagination. " Ch. H.
