The deconstruction of faces and bodies and their non-identity restitution allows me to create a new reality, different from the one I started from. Bodies and faces are becoming even more important. They reveal, not only in a narrative sense, how they are able to unveil an unseen reality and to release "hidden" feelings. A research that does not stop at the natural datum, but which illustrates a much more complex sense of logic. The "Without Identity" project highlights a portrait of a subject, a human being made of bodies but not subjects, more emphasizes the missing part. In portrayed subjects, a person's empathy is perceived visually as a daughter of our time, becoming more and more aesthetically and less spiritually.
