Rarefied air of petals.
- Is this the moment of genesis or dissolution?
- Well, it is the same.
In most ancient cosmogonic myths, the very first act of creation is a sound produced by a deity, that wins over void and night, and gets slowly clothed by light.
In my imagination, Eos, the goddess of dawn for ancient Greeks, generates flower petals from her breeze, clothes them with delicate nuances, and of weightless matter, through which their luminous and sound essence easily shines through, to tell us about our very essence as well.
Photography is for me a recent, yet deep, passion. My images arise from the wish to overcome the boundary between tangible reality and imagination, senses and emotions, matter and spirit: they address observer’s unconscious mind by creating synaesthesia and suggestions. I photograph soul's garden.
From 2017, I realized some personal exhibitions, and participated to a number of collective exhibitions in Pietrasanta, Lucca and Pisa. I recently curated two personal exhibitions of other artists, Roberto Ghezzi and Lorenzo Malfatti, respectively. I am a biologist, working at the University of Pisa.
