Models & People

My project is about the search for origin and nature through the representation of femininity. It refers to a kind of spiritual and artistic rebirth. My intention is to strip away the unnecessary so that nothing remains but the essence, almost animal in its rawness, yet always carrying a soul.
In my photographs, I seek fetal-like positions to evoke the idea of rebirth, a return to the most essential state. The aim is to create images with poses that are deliberately similar to one another, set in unusual natural environments and featuring different models.
I like to dare, if that is the right word. For example, the photo taken on the street was in many ways a little risky. Yet my intention is not to shock or surprise the viewer. Rather, I hope that through my photographs I can positively provoke a shared awareness of the body in its nakedness—as something utterly natural and profoundly simple.

Rebirth

Drawing inspiration from Pre-Raphaelite paintings, this concept was refined into a hyper-minimalist interpretation. Body and Water. Nature within nature.
To me, water embodies a powerful dichotomy. Having survived a traumatic experience where I nearly drowned, I associate it with danger, anxiety, and claustrophobia. Yet, water is also a source of life—an ancestral symbol of internal renewal. This is the compelling contrast that I wanted to explore and capture in this series.

the NIHILIST

This collection is not merely a sequence of images, but an intimate and provocative journey into the human soul, especially my own, where I explore nihilism not as an ending, but as an existential condition and a starting point for a new social awareness, one that is sharply questioned here. Its raw style is meant to capture intense, authentic emotions. The images form a silent dialogue between despair and the search for meaning in today’s existence, reflecting the inner struggle against the absence of predefined values.
The beauty of this collection lies in its brutal honesty. It offers no easy answers but raises difficult questions, inviting deep reflection on freedom, loneliness, and the possibility of building a sense of community in a world that seems to have lost it. Far from being destructive, this process is profoundly liberating.

"A photo suggests something different to every human being. Perhaps the emotion it releases depends more on our experience than from the photo itself. But, after all, the important thing is to arouse that emotion!"

"Una foto suggerisce ad ogni essere umano qualcosa di diverso. Forse l'emozione che sprigiona dipende più dal nostro vissuto che dalla foto in sé.
Ma, in fondo, l'importante è suscitarla quell'emozione!"
