The mix
The topic he works on could be named "mix and extra-ordinary". This idea is simply to capture the treasures which surround us and constitute our daily and usual life.
The mix of these common places we share, the people we meet there. The mix and the variety of different elements in a cultural, ethnic or visual way which are able to cohabit and combine.
This is the general idea he tries to underline.
Boxing portraits
it’s one of the most popular sport, A sport where you feel alone and where it’s hard to cheat.
It’s a noble sport whose image is corrupted.
All social categories, all kind of people combine there : from the baker to the clandestine, from the immigrate of Italy, maghreb to the gipsy.
« My goal : Trying do touch this tension, this energy we can find in every glances : a mix of concentration, conviction and pride »
Sicily
It’s the same idea :
To reveal beauty from these contrasted island, with 1001 paradoxes, island that combines the most arride grounds to the most luxuriant beaches.
The mix between oppulence and miser, wandering dogs and bosses, limpid waters exposed to the worst stains.
These contradictions make the richness and the beauty of Sicily : heritage of conflict centuries, inheritance of differents cultures that cohabit. The biggest and the most populated island of the mediterranean sea offers itself liberally.
