Who I am
I am passionate about photography young age. I started in the most natural way for me, photographing Those with whom-I have always lived and the places of my childhood. Source of endless inspiration, places and wonderful people who helped me and encouraged often posing in front of my lens. I read and I emphasized a thousand times book after book to learn the technique. My interest in photography and my curiosity about how reality could be captured and printed on magical images led me to invest my first boyfriend savings cameras (Which at that time I bought men from the East) That systematically smontavo and rimontavo to understand the most of the mechanism . I lived the photograph with curiosity, imagination, emotion and above all commitment. Over the years my interest in photography grew blackberries and more, it Became a passion, has become work, but above all has become love. Photography is for me a companion, a good friend, has the power to bring me back in time, even stop it, for this incredibly valuable.
If you were to pull the photograph to a perfume, what would be?
Photographs and perfume. The juxtaposition in my head is simple and immediate. The scent of the sea breeze, strong, determined, immersive, immediate and instantaneous as only a photo can be. An aroma that you can taste all the time, the exact instant that you perceive. A moment passes but does not disappear. A feeling that persists beyond the direct experience. An experience that lasts over time and space. The scent of the sea for me is like a beautiful picture you live in the moment the shots but leaves you a trail of sensations that expand in time and space.

Space, time, immagine.Qual'è the link between the three elements?
Space, time and image: the link between these three elements is for me the image itself. An image embodies a lot, encloses emotions, memories, imagination, mystery and fantasy. An image is the same time. is the past with its memories, is present with its moments and the future with the imagery. Image has room, it places, it is infinite, it is vast but it is also the limit and boundary. Images are brought to you by the hand and lead you in fantastic places, in the deep seas, vast plains, small caves or narrow tunnels. The image for me is both space and time, but it also goes further. The image for me is emotion.
What would bring Italy, traveling to another country?
From Italy, traveling to another country, I would bring with me without doubt one glimpse of my land: the HEAT. The heat of the SUN key part of my life, the warmth of the people with joy and good humor make it a welcoming an ancient and mysterious land, the warmth of the earth colors that with its yellow, orange and red lights up the territory, but especially the heat my emotions are what inspire me and allow you to enjoy, appreciate, love, share and capture the best possible experience and far different from me.
