I was born in 1980, Turin, Italy and have lived and worked in Turin, Bologna
and many other places in Italy. I have a degree in Philosophy from the University
of Bologna, and there, produced a thesis on the relation between Time and Photography
(worked on with the famous Italian critic and photography historian Claudio Marra).
I
began taking photographs in 2000 after receiving a camera from my grandfather
who bought it on the occasion of my birth. He was a photographer, but unfortunately
he died few months later. I still use this camera for the most important artworks
I make. It
quickly became a passion and I now work as an art photographer, a still photographer
for movies and an indipendent reporter. I also teach photography in courses and
workshops. I
have been published in Italian National newspapers and reviews and have had my
work exhibited in over 40 exhibitions in Italy and Europe. I have been published
the book about people with mental desease "Nonostante la vostra cortese ospitalità.
Fotografia e disagio mentale oggi", editrice Quinlan. I
am represented by the Claudio Bottello Contemporary Gallery, located in Turin,
Italy.
