The Silence is the protagonist of the boundless spaces beyond the Horizon.
They naturally adapt themselves to the environment, despite the difficulties, and receive in return life and prosperity: they are the Mongolian Nomads.
A temper molded by still territories and huge deserts that dissolve the concepts of space and time in a new dimension of the spirit, where the freedom, hardly and proudly chased and built, is absolutely needful.
An inheritance probably handed down by the Gengis Khan’ s valorous warriors that created one of the largest empires of human history.
In 2015 I obtained a master in photojournalism and documentary photography at “Fondazione studio Marangoni” in Florence.
Sensitive to the communication through the artistic expression, I discovered my passion for the photography just few years ago.
Togheter with my innate curiosity as a traveler who I am, photography changed my life giving her a deep meaning.
Travelling and transmitting traditions and emotions by a picture means offering an emotional and cultural heritage for the posterity, fixing the memory of the humanity’s roots; as far as I’m concerned travelling is the most powerful way of knowledge.
I’m particularly keen on the anthropologic and environmental aspects and I really love the world and anything which is part of it. With my photographs I try to capture the sensations given by light which involves everything.
The human being and his traditions, all around the world even in the most remote corners of the planet, deeply fascinates me.
“I personally consider this world just like a great book full of stories which I’m just trying to attach some illustrations”.
