La Isla

"Si el nombre es el arquetipo de la cosa, en las letras rosa està rosa, y todo el Nilo en la palabra Nilo"
J.L.Borges

Born 1978, Italy. Visual artist with deep interest in documentary projects, he has always practiced photography as a passion and as a pursuit of knowledge. After graduating in psychology in 2005 with a thesis on visual perception, begins his professional work in the reportage and portraits.
In his latest project “La Isla” (2010-2018), where the island is an archetypal site and a place in which man is free to give life to new utopias of regeneration, he has combined photography and video at the same time counting with the participation of more than 70 performers.
Currently lives in Ibiza.
