I have a strong love for old analogue<br />

technologies <strong>and</strong> at the same time<br />

am captured <strong>and</strong> fascinated by new<br />

ones <strong>and</strong> by the exploration that<br />

both old <strong>and</strong> new can intersperse in<br />

my creative process: challenges to<br />

overcome are my main incentive to<br />

go forward <strong>and</strong> explore.<br />

I am a very instinctive <strong>and</strong><br />

impressionist photographer, just<br />

as hungry <strong>and</strong> curious in my taking<br />

photographs as I am as a person.<br />

My inspirations <strong>and</strong> influences come<br />

from everything that surrounds<br />

me - but this is very far from saying<br />

that I like photography per se <strong>and</strong><br />

would rush at shooting anything.<br />

On the contrary, I am a rather picky<br />

photographer when it comes down<br />

to the choice <strong>of</strong> my subjects.<br />

I consider recognizing my themes<br />

<strong>and</strong> finding a style <strong>of</strong> my own as key<br />

points <strong>of</strong> my work.<br />

The latest project I have been<br />

- <strong>and</strong> still am - working on is a<br />

series <strong>of</strong> painterly iPhoneography<br />

photographs titled VeroSimile (a<br />

pun between real <strong>and</strong> plausible<br />

but also similar <strong>and</strong> probable), an<br />

exhibition where to highlight the<br />

painting-like qualities <strong>of</strong> the works<br />

<strong>and</strong> give more plausibility to the final<br />

result, all panels are embellished<br />

with pr<strong>of</strong>essionally-crafted wooden<br />

frames.<br />
