The photograph captures the Palazzo della Civiltà Italiana - an iconic example of Fascist architecture. It now serves as the headquarters of Fendi, which sparked debates regarding its political insensitivity. The use of black sky in the image highlights the controversy surrounding the complex relationship between architecture, politics, and aesthetics. It underscores the need for thoughtful consideration when repurposing buildings with controversial histories and prompts discussions about how society should engage with such structures.
I‘m a 28-year-old lawyer from Vilnius, Lithuania. Although I ended up on a different career path, I never forgot my childhood dream to become an architect. Wandering the city streets, I rediscovered my love for shaping the space according to my taste and understanding through photography. Captivated by the interplay of light and shadow on the urban landscape, I began taking pictures of buildings and people that caught my eye. I aim to offer a new perspective on buildings uncovering their hidden beauty.
