    Francesco Nicastri, Italy

This is an exploration, a different view, on a neglected, battered land.
This is the deep south and his warm light.

Francesco Nicastri, born in 1981, is an italian photographer based in Rome.
As a child he started shooting fascinated by the camera, by the slowly appearing pictures. Then the lens has became his window on the world, and he developed his passion for black & white.
Later on, he became interested in visual storytelling and in the hidden details of people and places.
Using photography to speak about himself, his work reveal the restless research of his place in the world.
