Tribute to Fidel Castro is a tiny story of the last trip of
Commander in the country that, through its revolution, changed
the history of Cuba also becoming one of the most recognized
in the world myths. The parade of hundreds of thousands of
people who have waited for the passage of the caravan with the
ashes, from Havana to Santiago (tracing back the various stages
of the Revolution) was a four-day trip between tears and
memories, photos, newspaper articles of another age. A
historical moment in memory of the man who defied the United
States and that, for better or for worse, is the father of most
Cubans, the revolution and the slogan "a better world is
possible".
Born in Rome and photographer since 1986, working between Rome and Buenos Aires. "I shoot like an artist and I think like a photographer" for this reason I define this photographic genre as "artistic reportage". The projects are born, mostly, discovering what I want to tell and how through my shots: a search between meanings and emotions of reality not immediately recognizable.
