"The glass always returns an image of ourselves, it does not matter if it reflects the image of the viewer or captures what looks, that glass, which is a mirror or a lens, will always reflect what we have inside us."

I was born in Milan in 1971, grew up in Ostia Lido, Rome, and after touring Italy in 2014 I stopped in Catania for sentimental reasons. Today I am the father of three children. Always attracted by visual arts and cinema in particular, I approach self-taught photography in 2011, strongly influenced by the "magic lantern". From 2014 I am working on the "Cinderella project does not live here anymore", with review of the key in human myth, revealing flaws and weaknesses, of which I made 3 of 8 stories project. Waiting for the necessary funds for the development of my stories and other projects closer to man and his story. I have exhibited in several collective and personal exhibitions both in Italy and abroad, including New York, Houston, Boston, Atlanta, Calgary.
