Semplice

Motta is one of the most popular songwriters of the new Italian music wave. This shot is part of the promotional campaign I realized for “Semplice” (Simple), his third album released on april 2021 by Sugar Music. I worked with a set designer to translate his texts and music in a minimal visual dimension, the inner room of maturity he entered after three years of musical research. (Thanks to Gucci / set design Cristina Del Zotto / styling Rebecca Baglini / grooming Fulvia Tellone / post Filippo Zoccoli / Woodworm Italia executive prod / Sugar Music label).

Professional photographer specialized in ADV, street and theatre stage photography. Since 2006 I collaborate with music labels, communication agencies, companies and foundations.

My research focuses on gender identities, social and urban transformations, imaginaries of the new theater. In 2017 i published my first book, "The hands of the city", a bn project about migrant workers in the after-earthquake rebuild of L'Aquila (DRAGO Publisher).
