There is no future - Limited Edition of 10 Photograph

I started photographing at the age of 23, moved by the charm that gave me to observe the flow of life and how the electromagnetic waves that surround us reveal the colors, reflections and magical darkness that accompany our existence visible. Aware that photography, however objective, is always a personal point of view, after graduating in art I started photographing on behalf of Italian and international newspapers, developing reportages on the topics that have always fascinated me, including the lighthouses that assist sailors, eastern philosophy and the life of the great poets of the Beat Generation. In 2017 I won the honorable mention at the World Water Photocontest with the work “Last water”. With the passage of time I felt the need to transfer my images to new supports, different from the conventional ones, so that they became unique material works, which however contained the typical credibility of the photographic shot. With the beginning of the new millennium this need became stronger and so during my reportages in various parts of the world I collected and kept small and significant material details by taking them from the place where I was working and then applying them to the final photograph thus making it a piece single. In this way, for example, was born the edition "FARI DELLE MERAVIGLIE" (Lighthouses of wonders) in which the photographs of the main Italian lighthouses that I took in the 80s of the last century for the publication of "IL LIBRO DEI FARI ITALIANI" published in 1985 for Ugo Mursia, Mondadori, I have been printed on old sails now unusable for navigation. The sails come from the boat on which I sailed for 5 years at the time of this report. The idea that prompted me to carry out this work 40 years later was to reveal the images of the lighthouses that remained "potentially latent" on them. More recently, to create "WALLS" I tore the coat from walls collected in various parts of the world, I brought them to the studio in Italy and I transported them on pictorial canvas with the transport technique of the fresco used in the restoration. On these wall transports I then printed some photographs playing with geometric chromatic and semantic analogies. The concrete material at the base of these works is very old as the exterior coats for at least 20 years have been acrylic based and cannot be torn. Therefore WALLS is a photographic edition printed on very old walls that have lived a thousand lives.
