E tu Cosa mi Dai in Cambio?#3 Print - Limited Edition of 100

The photo is part of an interdisciplinary project, inspired by Italian poet Roberto Piumini’s fairy tale. He’s a creator of a children's television program called "Albero Azzurro" popular in Italy. The fairy tale was read via Skype by the author during an exhibition to a group of Chinese children. It's about a little girl who, while playing ball, loses her name, which is stolen by an elf. Hence arise all the identity uncertainties, which are assuaged when she finds her name again. I hope these photos convey the importance of a person's first name in the Individual/Society relationship, and the importance of preserving culture for a globalized world respectful of the history of peoples. The subjects represented are Chinese young students, moving around the world for study reasons. They lose their name in place of a typical name of the city where they are located. So 刘璐璐 LIU LU LU which means beautiful like jade, in Naples she calls herself Maria; 吕沐熹 LU MU XI which means lying to the sun, he calls himself Marco, and so on.. The photos with a "social" style frame the students with a game ball and a paper poster, where their real name is written in calligraphic style.
