"The Lonely Body (Controluce, London 2016)" Photograph - Limited Edition of 50

I am an Italian artist moving between Lisbon, Naples and London. My work starts from a need to question the power of images — how they seduce, construct, and distort what we believe to be real. Through photography, I explore emotional states that feel both deeply personal and widely shared: loneliness, abandonment, the fear of being seen, the fragility of failure. I work within tension — between the real and the imagined, the document and the dream, memory and something more collective, almost unconscious. My images exist in that unstable space, where meanings shift and never fully settle. I am drawn to themes of sexuality, mysticism, body language and nature. I use them to build visual narratives that are intimate but also confrontational — spaces where vulnerability and discomfort can coexist, without resolution.
